INTRODUCTORY 


The  attention  of  the  General  Assembly  was  first  officially  called  to  the  necessity  for  a  complete  a 
authentic  "  Record  of  Connecticut  Men  in  the  War  with  Spain  "  by  Lieutenant  Nathaniel  G.  Valenti: 
President  of  the  Legislative  Committee,  Department  of  Connecticut,  United  Spanish  War  Veterans,  whi 
resulted  in  the  passage  of  the  following  Act : 

"  AN  ACT  CONCERNING  A  ROSTER  OF  SOLDIERS,  SAILORS  AND  MARINES  WHO  SERVI 
IN  THE  SPANISH-AMERICAN  WAR,  PHILIPPINE  INSURRECTION,  AND  CHINA  R 
LIEF  EXPEDITION. 

Be  it  enacted  by  the  Senate  and  House  of  Representatives  in  General  Assembly  convened: 

Section  1.  The  adjutant  general-  is  hereby  directed  to  prepare  a  roster  containing  the  names  and  co 
plete  military  and  naval  record  of  the  soldiers,  sailors  and  marines  who  were  in  the  service  of  the  Unil 
States  in  the  Spanish-American  War,  Philippine  Insurrection,  and  China  Relief  Expedition,  from  Ap 
21,  1898  to  July  4,  1904,  who  were  credited  on  the  quota  from  this  State.  It  shall  include  the  names 
those  who  served  in  the  United  States  volunteers  in  the  regular  army  or  navy,  or  as  volunteers  from  otl 
States  who  were  residents  of  this  State  at  the  time  of  enlistment,  or  who  are  residents  of  this  State  at  \ 
time  of  the  passage  of  this  act. 

Section  2.  Such  roster  shall  contain  a  brief  statement  of  the  operations  and  service  of  each  regime 
battalion,  battery,  detachment,  and  ship  of  which  any  resident  of  this  State  was  a  commanding  officer,  a 
of  engagements  by  the  United  States  Marine  Corps  commanded  by  any  resident  of  this  State.  Such  ros 
shall  contain  a  half-tone  engraving  of  the  commanding  officer  of  the  first  and  third  regiments  (infantr 
light  battery  A,,  heavy  batteries  B  and  C  (artillery),  and  the  first  naval  battalion. 

Section  3.  A  copy  of  such  roster  shall  be  forwarded  to  each  State  officer,  town  clerk,  clerk  of  the  boa

Approved  March  31,  1915." 

In  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the  foregoing  act,  the  adjutant  general  at  once  began  to  ta 
steps  for  securing  any  information  possible,  which  could  not  be  had  from  records  on  file  at  the  adjut£ 
general's  office,  in  order  to  make  this  record  as  complete  as  possible.  Blank  forms  of  questionnaire  w( 
mailed  to  all  United  Spanish  War  veteran  camps  in  the  State,  also  on  several  occasions  did  the  adjutant  g< 
eral  United  Spanish  War  veterans  insert  paragraphs  in  general  orders  from  headquarters  requesting  vetera 
of  the  Spanish-American  War  to  communicate  with  this  office,  and  considerable  valuable  data  was  there 
secured.  As  a  final  resort  permission  was  requested  of,  and  granted  by  the  adjutant  general  of  the  am 
for  a  search  through  the  records  of  the  War  Department,  where  names  and  records  of  men  were  secured  whi 
could  not  have  been  found  otherwise.  The  statements  of  the  operations  and  service  of  each  regiment  a 
pther  organizations  were  prepared  by  officers  of  the  several  organizations  and  they  are  given  without  fi 
ther  revision  than  a  verification  of  dates  by  comparison  with  official  records. 


10  INTROD  UCTORY. 

The  following  extracts  from  the  report  of  the  Adjutant  General,  State  of  Connecticut,  1898,  to  the 
Governor  of  Connecticut,  together  with  official  reports  of  the  several  commanding  officers  of  the  Connecticut 
organizations  in  the  War  with  Spain,  will  give  a  fair  synopsis  of  the  proceedings  leading  to  the  volunteer 
ing  of  the  organizations  and  their  service  in  the  war : 

"ADJUTANT-GENERAL'S  OFFICE, 

HARTFORD,  December  1,  1898. 
To  His  Excellency,  LORRIN  A.  COOKE, 

Governor  and  Commander-in-Chief. 

SIR  :  —  I  have  the  honor  to  submit  the  following  report  of  this  department  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  Septem 
ber  30,  1898. 


WAR  WITH  SPAIX. 

Under  date  of  April  28,  1898,  a  communication  was  received  by  this  department  from  the  Secretary  of  War 
relative  to  the  first  call  for  troops  following  the  President's  proclamation  for  one  hundred  and  twenty-five  thousand 
(125,000)  men,  from  which  an  extract  is  herewith  submitted: 

'  I  have  the  honor  to  request  you  to  provide  from  your  state  the  quota  of  volunteers  as  fol 
lows  :  One  regiment  of  infantry,  1  light  battery,  and  two  heavy  batteries  to  serve  in  the  arms 
of  service  designated,  for  the  period  of  two  years  unless  sooner  discharged.  Attached  will  be 
found  a  statement  showing  the  organization  for  artillery  and  infantry.  The  rendezvous  for 
your  state  will  be  Xiantic. 

'  The  composition  of  organization  required  for  quota  was  as  follows:  Light  battery,  125, 
officers  inclusive.  Heavy  battery,  150,  officers  inclusive.  Infantry  companies,  84  maximum, 
officers  inclusive.  Field,  staff,  and  non-commissioned  staff,  18.' 

In  accordance  with  the  requirements  of  the  Secretary  of  War,  General  Orders  Xo.  6,  under  date  of  April 
22,  1898,  was  at  once  issued  from  this  department  increasing  the  maximum  strength  for  companies  of  infantry,  to 
eighty-four  (8-i)  men,  officers  inclusive. 

General  Orders  Xo.  7,  under  date  of  April  27th,  directed  commandants  of  organizations  of  the  Connecticut 
Xational  Guard,  with  the  exception  of  the  Xaval  Battalion,  to  turn  in  to  the  Quartermaster-General's  Depart 
ment,  Arsenal,  Hartford,  Conn.,  all  the  dress  coats  and  helmets  in  their  possession,  as  it  was  assumed  there  would 
be  no  use  for  the  same  during  the  war. 

General  Orders  No.  8,  under  date  of  April  30th,  constituted  the  State  Military  Rendezvous  at  Xiantic  a  mili 
tary  post,  under  the  command  of  Brigadier-General  George  Haven,  Adjutant-General.  It  also  directed  Colonel 
Charles  L.  Burdett,  commanding  First  Regiment,  Infantry,  and  Capt.  Barlow  S.  Hoiice,  commanding  Battery  A, 
Light  Artillery,  C.  X.  G.,  to  assemble  their  respective  commands  at  the  Military  Rendezvous  May  4th,  prepara 
tory  to  muster  into  the  service  of  the  United  States. 

General  Orders  Xo.  9,  under  date  of  May  6th,  named  the  Military  Post  at  Xiantic,  Qonn.,  Camp  Haven,  in 
honor  of  the  Adjutant-General. 

General  Orders  Xo.  10,  under  date  of  May  7th,  authorized  the  addition  oi^tawH&atteries  of  artillery  to  the 
Connecticut  Xational  Guard,  by  the  re-organization  of  Co^K,  Fourth  Regiment,  (designated  Battery  B,  and  the 
new  company  recruited  by  Lieut.-Col.  Francis  G.  Beach,  A.  A.-G.,  Brigade  C.  X.  G.,  designated  Battery  C. 

General  Orders  Xo.  11,  under  date  of  May  llth,  appointed  officers  of  the  Xational  Guard  in  the  Connecticut 
Volunteers,  with  rank  from  date  of  muster  into  the  United  States  service,  added  a  third  platoon  to  Battery  A, 
Light  Artillery,  and  granted  leave  of  absence  for  the  commissioned  officers  and  furloughs  to  the  enlisted  men  of 
the  First  Regiment  and  Battery  A,  during  their  term  of  service  in  the  volunteer  army  of  the  United  States. 

Special  Orders  Xos.  66  and  70  directed  Capt.  Fred.  J.  Breckbill  to  assemble  his  command  at  State  Mili 
tary  Rendezvous  May  4th,  Lieut.-Col.  Francis  G.  Beach,  A.  A.-G.,  to  assemble  his  recruits  at  the  same  place, 
May  7th. 

The  third  platoon  mentioned,  added  to  Battery  A,  Light,  was  composed  of  young  men  from  Yale  College,  and 
Herbert  T.  Weston,  one  of  their  number,  was  appointed  a  Lieutenant  to  command  it. 

Prior  to  the  call  of  the  President,  the  Connecticut  Xational  Guard  consisted  of  thirty-seven  (37)  infantry 
companies  with  a  maximum  strength  each  of  sixty-eight  (68)  men,  officers  inclusive;  one  light  battery  consist 
ing  of  two  platoons  with  a  maximum  strength  of  eighty-seven  (87) ;  machine-gun  battery  of  four  sections,  ten 
(10)  men  each;  a  signal  corps  consisting  of  four  sections,  ten  (10)  men  each;  and  a  Xaval  Battalion  consisting 
of  two  line  and  one  engineer  division,  making  in  all  one  hundred  and  sixty-six  (166)  men,  officers  inclusive, 
all  under  the  command  of  a  Brigadier-General.  The  total  strength  of  the  Brigade  was  two  thousand  eight  hun 
dred  and  sixty-two  (2,862). 


INTRODUCTORY.  11 

The  executive  department  at  this  time  found  itself  in  a  peculiarly  embarrassing  position  on  account  of  there 
being  no  fund  for  military  purposes.  The  General  Assembly  at  its  session  of  1897  passed  a  law  making  a  specific 
appropriation  for  military  purposes  but  classifying  the  same  so  that  no  balance  could  be  diverted  from  the  object  so 
classified  into  other  channels,  and  all  the  unexpended  money  was  required  to  be  turned  back  into  the  state  treas 
ury  at  the  close  of  the  two  fiscal  years,  and,  as  a  result,  there  was  but  a  very  small  amount  of  money  of  said 
appropriation  that  could  be  utilized  for  arming,  uniforming,  equipping,  and  paying  the  troops. 

The  State  Board  of  Control,  of  which  you  were  the  Chairman,  upon  my  recommendation  and  your  approval 
as  Commander-in-Chief,  created  a  fund  for  the  purchase  of  articles  required. 

First  Lieutenant  Hamilton  Rowan,  U.  S.  A.,  was  designated  by  the  Adjutant-General  of  the  Army  as  mus 
tering  officer  of  the  several  organizations  called  for  from  Connecticut  and  in  compliance  with  orders,  reported 
to  the  Commander-in-Chief. 

Each  commandant  of  the  four  regiments,  C.  N.  G.,  was  urgent  in  hisi  claim  that  the  several  commands 
should  have  the  honor  to  be  first  in  the  field  in  response  to  the  call  for  troops. 

After  a  careful  consideration  of  the  matter,  your  Excellency  decided  that  the  First  Regiment,  Colonel  Charles 
L.  Burdett  commanding,  by  seniority  in  rank  of  its  commanding  officer,  should  be  the  first  to  be  called  out,  and 
said  decision  is  embodied  in  the  following  communication. 

(Copy.) 
STATE  OF  CONNECTICUT. 

ADJUTANT-GENEBAL'S  OFFICE, 

HABTFORD,  CONN.,  April  27,  1898. 
Colonel  CHABLES  L.  BUBDETT, 

Commanding  First  Regiment,  C.  N.  G., 
Hartford,  Conn. 

SIB:  —  The  selection  of  the  First  Regiment,  C.  N.  G.,  as  of  the  quota  of  infantry  required  by 
the  President  of  the  United  States  for  an  enlistment  of  two  years,  given  orally  to  you  by  His 
Excellency,  the  Governor  and  Commander-in-Chief,  is  hereby  confirmed. 

It  is  understood  that  the  selection  of  the  First  Regiment  is  based  on  the  fact  that  the  regi 
ment  will  report  for  duty  with  numbers,  as  per  your  report  of  yesterday  to  the  Adjutant-General. 

Very  respectfully,  WM.  E.  F.  LANDERS, 

Assistant  Adjutant-General. 

The  First  Regiment,  Battery  A,  Light,  and  Battery  B,  reported  to  me  May  4th,  at  about  5.40  P.  M.,  at  Camp 
Haven,  State  Military  Rendezvous,  Niantic,  Conn.,  the  morning  report  for  the  day  showing  practically  100  per 
cent,  present.  Vacancies  had  been  left  in  some  companies  by  the  enlistment  of  band  and  hospital  corps  which 
had  to  be  taken  from  the  strength  of  the  organizations. 

It  was  understood  that  the  medical  examinations  of  the  men  should  begin  on  the  morning  of  May  5th,  but 
the  weather  was  so  unfavorable,  it  being  damp  and  cold,  I  concluded  to  put  a  stove  in  one  of  the  mess-houses, 
so  that  the  danger  from  colds  and  possible  pneumonia  would  be  reduced  to  the  minimum.  At  two  o'clock  p.  M., 
the  surgeons  began  their  medical  examinations,  which  were  made  as  fast  as  possible  until  completion. 

Nine  companies  of  the  First  Regiment  were  mustered  into  the  United  States'  service  on  May  17th,  the  re 
maining  companies  and  batteries  being  mustered  on  the  following  day. 

The  surgeon's  very  strict  examination  resulted  in  a  decrease  of  20  per  cent,  in  the  membership  of  the  different 
organizations.  This  deficiency  had  to  be  made  up  by  new  recruits. 

The  interval  between  arrival  in  camp  and  final  muster  into  the  United  States  service  was  fully  occupied 
in  drills.  Recruits  were  constantly  being  brought  in  to  take  the  place  of  those  rejected  by  the  surgeons,  and 
squads  at  drill  were  to  be  seen  at  almost  any  hour  of  the  day.  In  addition  thereto,  battalion  and  regimental 
drills,  also  drills  in  extended  order,  and  battle  exercises  were  held  frequently. 

Brigadier-General  Albert  P.  Day,  Commissary-General,  under  your  direction  attended  to  the  very  responsible 
duties  of  the  subsistence  department.  The  troops  were  supplied  with  food  upon  their  arrival,  and  very  little 
complaint  was  heard.  The  experience  of  cooking  their  own  rations  was  a  novelty  as  well  as  a  success. 

It  has  been  said  that  Connecticut  was  slow  in  getting  her  first  quota  of  troops  ready,  but  it  was  not  con 
sidered  wise  to  follow  the  example  of  one  State  which  fairly  jumped  her  men  into  camp  with  nothing  to  protect 
them  from  the  inclemency  of  the  weather.  Acting  under  your  instructions,  I  was  determined  that  ample  pro 
vision  for  shelter  and  subsistence  should  be  made  for  the  Connecticut  troops  before  going  into  camp;  regard  for 
the  health  of  the  men  unaccustomed  to  exposure  being  of  primary  importance  compared  to  that  of  trying  to  make 
a  record  by  promptness  in  mobilizing  troops.  As  a  matter  of  fact,  however,  the  time  expended  in  examination 
and  muster  had  no  bearing  on  the  final  disposition  of  our  quota  under  the  first  call,  as  this  department  knew  that 
the  entire  quota  was  assigned  to  coast  defense  as  early  as  May  8th. 


12  INTRODUCTORY. 

The  fact  that  the  members  of  the  Connecticut  National  Guard  were  enlisted  in  the  State  service  for  a  period 
of  three  years,  and  re-enlistment  for  a  period  of  two  years,  retarded  the  work  of  mobilization  to  some  extent. 
The  following  is  quoted  from  the  militia  law : 

'  The  active  militia  ....  shall  first  be  called  out  by  the  Commander-in-Chief  on  all 
occasions  for  military  service,  and  may  by  him  be  turned  over  into  the  service  of  the  United 
States,  on  requisition  by  the  President,  for  service  without  the  State,  not  exceeding  three  months 
in  any  one  year.' 

Many  of  the  enlisted  men  were  occupying  lucrative  positions,  with  fair  or  good  salaries.  They  had  been 
promised  by  their  employers  leave  of  absence  for  the  three  months  prescribed  by  law,  but  to  have  these  positions 
retained  during  their  two  years'  service,  as  required  by  the  Government,  could  not  be  expected.  On  this  account 
many  hesitated,  and  in  some  cases  refused,  to  enter  the  United  States  service  for  two  years  for  the  small  sum  of 
$15.60  per  month.  I  believe  that  had  the  call  been  only  for  three  months,  ninety-eight  (98)  per  cent,  of  the 
National  Guard  would  have  responded.  Under  the  circumstances  much  recruiting  had  to  be  done,  which  caused 
delay.  Battery  A,  Light,  was  expanded  from  eighty  (80)  to  one  hundred  and  twenty-five  (125)  men;  Battery  B, 
from  eighty-four  (84)  to  one  hundred  and  fifty  (150)  men,  and  Battery  C,  recruited  entirely,  with  a  numerical 
strength  of  one  hundred  and  fifty  (150)  men. 

The  Quartermaster-General's  Department  is  to  be  complimented  on  the  promptness  with  which  it  met  all 
requisitions  for  equipments  and  transportation.  The  brigade  had  been  thoroughly  equipped  for  three  months' 
service  with  the  exception  of  ponchos,  underwear,  and  shoes.  All  organizations  were  equipped  as  rapidly  as  they 
were  mobilized. 

I  was  actuated  by  a  desire  not  only  to  save  the  Connecticut  troops  unnecessary  exposure,  but  to  furnish  them 
good  food,  clothing,  and  equipments,  so  that  when  they  were  called  into  service  they  might  be  a  credit  to  the  State. 
Troops  from  some  States  were  sent  with  but  scanty  supply  of  necessary  equipments;  others  found  themselves 
minus  nearly  everything,  except,  perhaps,  the  few  clothes  they  wore. 

As  a  result  of  the  work  above  mentioned  our  troops  were  mustered  into  the  United  States  service,  uniformed, 
armed,  and  equipped  for  the  field,  and  prepared  to  fill  any  position  where  the  Government  saw  fit  to  place  them, 
whether  at  the  front  or  elsewhere. 

The  work  of  preparing  troops  for  the  field  takes  time,  and  it  is  utterly  impossible  to  mobilize  troops  at  a 
moment's  notice  and  have  them  in  any  degree  prepared  for  service. 

While  our  officers  were  fairly  competent  in  tactical  maneuvers,  they  were  totally  inexperienced  in  caring  for 
their  men  in  the  field,  so  that  it  was  necessary  that  some  officer  of  the  army  who  had  seen  field  service  should  be 
assigned  to  each  regiment.  With  this  in  view,  application  was  made  to  the  War  Department  for  Captain  Andrew 
G.  Hammond  of  the  8th  United  States  Cavalry,  then  stationed  at  the  Cavalry  and  Infantry  School,  Fort  Leaven- 
worth,  Kansas.  Captain  Hammond  was  given  leave  of  absence  from  the  army  and  immediately  appointed  Lieuten 
ant-Colonel  of  the  1st  regiment.  Colonel  Hammond  is  a  native  of  Connecticut,  and  was  appointed  to  West  Point 
from  the  First  Congressional  district. 

The  aggregate  strength  of  organizations  mustered  into  the  United  States  service  under  the  first  call  was  as 
follows1 : 

First  Kegiment  C.  V.  Infantry,  eight  hundred  and  forty-eight  (848)  men,  officers  inclusive. 

First  Kegiment  C.  V.  Artillery,  four  hundred  and  thirteen  (413)  men,  officers  inclusive. 

Making  a  total  of  one  thousand  two  hundred  and  sixty-one  (1261)  men,  officers  inclusive. 

There  was  issued  to  the  organizations  by  the  State,  tentage,  cooking  outfits,  mess  outfits,  medical  stores,  and 
full  set  of  hospital  equipments.  The  State  also  furnished  each  commissioned  officer  with  a  Colt's  revolver. 

All  of  the  supplies  were  in  first-class  condition,  most  of  them  new,  with  the  exception  of  the  tentage.  It  was 
a  source  of  regret  to  'the  military  authorities  that  the  tentage  was  not  in  as  good  condition  as  the  other  equipments. 
Under  ordinary  circumstances  the  same  would  have  answered  for  half  a  dozen  more  encampments  of  the  National 
Guard,  but  the  weather  conditions  during  the  time  the  organizations  were  in  camp  were  exceptionally  bad,  with 
constant  rain  and  snow.  It  is  safe  to  say  that  the  tentage  never  experienced  such  a  strain.  New  tentage  would 
have  mildewed  and  deteriorated  rapidly  under  such  usage,  and,  to  make  the  matter  worse,  it  was  utterly  impossible 
at  this  time  for  the  State  to  buy  a  yard  of  canvas,  as  everything  in  that  line  had  been  promptly  secured  on  ac 
count  of  the  great  demand. 

The  following  telegram  from  the  Secretary  of  War  is  itself  explanatory  of  the  needs  of  the  Government  •

WASHINGTON,  D.  C.,  May  5,  1898.

question  of  compensation  for  this  property  will  be  made  by  this  office  on  terms  of  equity. 
Give  us  all  possible. 

R.  A.  ALGER, 

Secretary  of  War. 

In  response  to  this  telegram,  tents  were  furnished  by  the  State,  and  the  Government  was  charged  with  a  fair

LORRIN  A.  COOKE, 

Governor. 

A  reply  was  received  from  the  War  Department,  May  29,  1898,  to  the  above  telegram  as  follows: 

(Copy.) 
To  the  Governor  of  Connecticut: 

Under  first  call  for  125,000  men,  it  was  contemplated  that  the  number  of  original  organiza 
tions  called  for  should  have  the  maximum  strength  stated  below,  but  on  account  of  additional 
organizations  having  to  be  accepted,  this  maximum  had  to  be  reduced  to  81  enlisted  men  per 
company.  The  maximum  above  contemplated  is  106  enlisted  men  per  company  of  infantry,  100 
per  troop  of  cavalry,  173  per  light  battery,  200  per  heavy  battery,  1,326  of  all  grades  per  regi 
ment  of  infantry,  consisting  of  three  battalions  of  four  companies  each.  Secretary  of  War 
bids  me  to  say  it  is  now  the  wish  of  the  President  to  apply,  in  accordance  with  the  law,  so 
much  of  second  call  for  75,000  as  may  be  necessary  to  fill  organizations  already  in  service  from 
your  State  to  the  maximum  strength  just  stated.  The  Secretary  of  War  bids  me  s-ay  that 
recruiting  officers  will  be  detailed  to  make  and  superintend,  under  army  regulations,  enlistments 
for  this  purpose  of  the  number  of  men  wired  you  May  27th.  Please  name  one  or  more  com 
petent  field  officers  of  the  regiment  already  in  service  from  your  State  to  be  detailed  under 
orders  from  War  Department  for  this  duty. 

H.  C.  CORBIN, 

Adjutant-GeneraL 

It  is  proper  to  state,  in  order  to  make  the  conditions  clear,  that  the  requirements,  as  embodied  in  the  sec 
ond  telegram,  necessitated  that  the  ten  (10)  companies  in  the  First  Regiment  Infantry  should  be  expanded 
from  eighty-four  (84)  to  one  hundred  and  six  (106)  men  per  company,  and  two  companies  added  with  one  hun 
dred  and  six  (106)  men  each;  Battery  A,  Light,  First  Regiment,  Artillery,  be  expanded  from  one  hundred  and 
twenty-five  (125)  to  one  hundred  and  seventy-three  (173),  and  Batteries  B  and  C  of  the  same  should  be  ex 
panded  from  one  hundred  and  fifty  (150)  to  two  hundred  (200)  each,  making  in  all  five  hundred  and  eighty  (580) 
additional  troops  (which  were  furnished),  leaving  a  balance  of  three  hundred  and  eighty  (380)  due  the  govern 
ment. 


14  INTRODUCTORY. 

This  result  was  accomplished  by  recruiting  Company  G,  Fourth  Kegiment,  commanded  by  Captain  Vincent 
M.  King  of  Danbury,  to  its  maximum  strength  and  adding  it  to  the  First  Regiment.  (Special  Orders  No.  105, 
A.-G.  O.,  June  20,  1898.)  In  Special  Orders  No.  125,  A.-G.  O.,  July  6,  1898,  said  company  was  designated  Com 
pany  M,  First  Regiment,  C.  V.  I. 

Special  Orders  No.  124,  A.-G.  O.,  July  5,  1898,  attached  the  military  organization  of  one  hundred  and  nine

C.  Y.  I.,  and  designated  the  same  Company  L. 

Your  tender  of  the  Third  Regiment  of  twelve  (12)  companies  of  one  hundred  and  six  (106)  men  each,  which 
was  finally  accepted  and  mustered,  left  to  the  credit  of  the  State  of  Connecticut  nine  hundred  and  forty-six  (946) 
men  in  excess  of  quota  under  both  calls. 

Under  date  of  May  6,  1898,  you  tendered  the  Third  Regiment  in  the  following  communication :

Major  Gilbert  L.  Fitch  of  the  Fourth  Regiment,  was  appointed  Major  of  the  Third  Regiment,  C.  N.  G. 

The  examination  and  muster  of  the  above  organizations  began  June  22d  and  ended  July  6th  (14  days). 
The  same  difficulty  was  experienced  in  medical  examinations  with  this  regiment  as  with  the  previous  organiza

gether  with  the  expansion  of  the  companies,  by  order  of  the  War  Department,  from  eighty-four  (84)  to  one  hun 
dred  and  nine  (109)  men  each,  necessitated  additional  recruiting.  The  regiment  numbered  one  thousand  two  hun 
dred  and  seventy-seven  (1,277)  at  time  of  muster,  forty-nine  (49)  men  short  of  strength  required  by  the  Govern 
ment,  which  were  afterwards  recruited  and  added  to  the  several  companies,  making  an  aggregate  of  one  thousand 
three  hundred  and  twenty-six  (1,326)  men. 

This  regiment  was  held  at  Niantic  until  September  10th,  when  it  was  ordered  to  Camp  Meade,  Pennsylvania, 
by  the  War  Department. 


NAVAL  MILITIA. 

Under  date  of  March  26,  1898,  a  communication  was  received  from  the  Assistant  Secretary  of  the  Navy 
with  the  request  that  this  Department  forward  to  Commander  Elmer,  U.  S.  N.,  the  names  of  such  vessels  be 
longing  to  the  seaports  of  this  state  as  could  be  most  readily  fitted  out  as  improvised  gun  vessels,  rams,  or  tor 
pedo  boats,  also  information  as  to  the  possibility  of  securing  the  services  of  the  present  captains  and  crews. 

In  accordance  with  the  same,  Commander  Edward  G.  Buckland,  commanding  Naval  Battalion,  C.  N.  G., 
was  ordered  to  make  a  detail  from  his  battalion  to  visit  the  seaport  towns  of  the  state  and  harbors  where  vessels 
had  been  laid  up  for  the  winter,  to  inspect  and  make  out  a  complete  list  of  the  vessels  suitable  for  an  auxiliary 
naval  fleet.  His  report  wa§  forwarded  by  this  Department  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Navy  April  1,  1898,  and  em 
braced  a  report  of  the  yachts  Embla  and  Huntress,  the  only  two  craft  in  Connecticut  suitable  for  torpedo  boats,

OFFICE  OF  THE  ASSISTANT  SECRETARY, 

WASHINGTON,  April  4,  1898. 
SIR: 

The  Department  is  in  receipt  of  your  letter  of  the  2d  instant,  stating  that  you  have  for 
warded  certain  data  relating  to  auxiliary  vessels.  The  blanks  giving  the  above  information 
have  also  been  received. 

Very  respectfully,

Assistant  Adjutant-General  of  Connecticut, 
Hartford,  Conn. 

Before  the  month  expired  the  following  communication  was  received  from  the  Navy  Department : 

(Copy.) 

NAVY  DEPARTMENT, 

OFFICE  OF  ASSISTANT  SECRETARY, 

WASHINGTON,  April  25,  1898. 
SIR: 

In  compliance  with  the  recommendations  of  Commander  Horace  Elmer,  U.  S.  N.,  Chief  of 
the  U.  S.  Auxiliary  Naval  Force,  the  Department  requests  that  the  Naval  Militia  force  of 
Connecticut  be  increased  to  such  numbers  as  will  enable  it  to  man  the  vessels  assigned  to  it  in 
the  scheme  for  coast  defense. 

You  are  requested  to  have  the  Adjutant-General  confer  with  Commander  Edward  G.  Buck- 
land,  commanding  the  Naval  Battalion  of  Connecticut  National  Guard,  in  regard  to  this  plan. 

Very  respectfully, 
T.  KOOSEVELT, 

Assistant  Secretary. 
The  Governor  of  Connecticut, 
Executive  Department. 

In  compliance  with  the  above  letter,  Commander  Backland  was  ordered  to  put  his  command  in  condition  for 
immediate  service.     The  Quartermaster-General  was  dirested  to  supply  all  needed  equipments. 

On  May  26th,  this  Department  received  a  communication   from    the   Navy    Department   which    is   herewith 
submitted. 

(Copy.) 

NAVY  DEPARTMENT, 

WASHINGTON,  D.  C.,  May  26,  1898. 
SIR: 

The  consideration  of  the  value  to  the  country  at  large,  and  to  the  Navy  in  particular,  of  a 
naval  militia  in  case  of  war  was  based  upon  the  expectation  of  a  body  of  well-drilled  officers 
and  men  capable  of  being  taken  into  the  service  when  wanted,  and  prepared  to  endure  the 
regular  work  of  the  Navy  during  a  war,  the  officers  and  men  being  taken  together. 

The  exigencies  of  the  present  war  have  demonstrated  that  insufficient  drill  has  been  given  to 
both  officers  and  men,  especially  of  the  Seaman  Branch  who  have  not  had  previous  naval 
training,  and  it  is  only  by  making  regular  enlistments  for  one  year,  unless  sooner  discharged, 
and  then  selecting  such  details  as  seem  best  suited  to  the  wants  of  the  Department  that  'the 
greatest  efficiency  can  be  obtained. 

The  recent  passage  of  the  Auxiliary  Naval  Force  Joint  Resolution  now  gives  an  opportunity 
for  a  more  general  employment  of  the  Naval  Militia,  and  in  order  to  secure  the  largest  number 
of  men,  it  is  suggested  that  the  Adjutant-General  of  the  different  states  be  instructed  to  ren 
dezvous  their  Naval  Reserves  for  examination  and  enlistment  of  such  as  may  be  found  qualified. 

The  officers  and  men  should  be  informed  that,  while  the  intention  is  that  their  services  shall 
be  used  as  far  as  practicable  for  necessary  coast  defense,  yet  inasmuch  as  they  are  to  be  mus 
tered  in,  to  receive  the  same  rank  and  pay  as  those  of  the  regular  Navy,  they  must  be  prepared 
in  case  of  special  emergencies  to  serve  wherever  the  Department  deems  their  presence  most 
necessary. 

In  order  to  save  the  State  useless  expense,  and  the  men  unnecessary  loss  of  time,  Rear  Ad 
miral  Erben,  39  Whitehall  Street,  New  York  city,  will  be  instructed  to  arrange  with  the  Ad 
jutant-General  as  to  the  time  and  place  for  holding  examinations  and  making  enlistments  of 
those  who  may  volunteer  to  serve  under  the  above-mentioned  conditions. 

Those  passing  the  examinations,  physically  and  professionally,  shall  be  recommended  for  the 
appointment  to  the  grades,  or  enlisted  for  the  ratings,  for  which  they  may  be  found  best  qualified, 
and  when  mustered  into  the  service  they  will  be  sent  to  the  nearest  receiving  ship,  or  station, 


INTRODUCTORY  17 

from  which  regular  details  can  be  drawn  as  required,  which,  as  far  as  practicable,  will  be  made 
up  of  men  from  the  same  state  and  organization. 

In  this  manner  all  the  states'  Naval  Militia  can  be  utilized  and  the  same  opportunities  can  be 
offered  to  all  alike. 

The  Department  herewith  encloses  the  instructions  that  will  be  issued  for  making  examina 
tions  and  enlistments.  .Respectfully, 

JOHN  D.  LONG, 
Secretary  of  the  Navy. 

To  the  Governor  of  the  State  of  Connecticut,     . 
Hartford,  Conn.

I  am  directed  by  Rear  Admiral  Erben,  U.  S.  N.,  retired,  in  charge  of  the  Coast  Defense  Sys

In  regard  to  the  service  of  the  Naval  Militia,  you  are  respectfully  referred  to  the  report  of  Lieutenant  John 
W.  Weeks,  U.  S.  N.  In  this  report  Lieutenant  Weeks  speaks  very  highly  of  our  Naval  Militia  and  considers  their 
services  especially  meritorious,  as  said  service  was  particularly  trying,  most  of  the  men  being  stationed  on  a  re-

cruiting  ship,  with  very  little  hope  of  seeing  active  service.     Their  prompt  response  to  the  call  of  the  Govern

U.  S.  Y.  Signal  Corps  Battalion.  Died  at  Jacksonville,  Fla. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  one  company  of  signal  men  was  recruited  from  our  Brigade  Signal  Corps  and  not 
counted  on  our  quota.  These  men  performed  their  duties  to  the  satisfaction  of  their  superior  officers  and  with 

credit  to  the  State.     They  are  still  in  service. 

************* 

With  the  destruction  of  the  Spanish  fleet  under  command  of  Admiral  Cervera  all  danger  to  our  seaboard 
was  obviated,  and  the  commandant  of  the  First  Regiment  wras  ordered  to  assemble  the  several  companies  of  his 
command  at  Camp  Haven,  and  from  these  they  were  transported  to  Camp  Alger,  Dunn  Loring,  Ya. 

It  is  proper  to  add  that  but  one  of  the  New  England  States  had  troops  in  active  service,  and  but  few  of  the 
entire  sisterhood  of  states  had  troops  at  Santiago,  the  only  battlefield  of  the  war  with  the  exception  of  Manila. 
The  fact  of  our  troops  not  being  called  to  the  front  does  not  detract  in  the  least  from  their  patriotism  or  fidel 
ity.  A  good  soldier  is  one  who  is  ready  to  obey  orders,  to  do  duty  at  home,  in  camp,  or  on  the  battlefield.  Our 
Connecticut  troops  enlisted  with  the  expectation  of  going  anywhere  in  the  United  States  or  foreign  countries, 
if  ordered.  The  service  they  performed,  consisting  of  a  monotonous  routine  of  camp  duty,  while  termed  "  in 
active,"  was  fraught  with  something  more  deadly  and  insidious  than  a  Spanish  bullet,  and  that  was  typhoid 
fever.  A  number  of  them  succumbed  to  this  disease,  and  their  names  should  be  imperishable  and  recorded  on 
our  State  roll  of  honor  with  those  who  died  in  the  War  of  the  Rebellion. 

Statistics  show  that  during  the  War  of  the  Rebellion  four  men  died  from  disease  where  one  died  from  the 
enemy's  bullet,  and  it  must  be  remembered  that  thousands  died  from  disease  in  the  Chicahominy  swamps  before 
Richmond;  thousands  died  in  Andersonville  prison,  and  history  simply  records  the  fact.  War  is  horrible  in  any 
phase,  and  a  soldier  who  battles  with  and  dies  from  disease  is  entitled  to  just  as  much  glory  as  one  who  falls 
facing  the  enemy. 

Connecticut  should  be  proud  of  the  National  Guard.  Their  promptness  to  respond  to  the  call  of  their 
country  shows  that  the  spirit  of  patriotism  and  loyalty  which  actuated  and  animated  their  forefathers  in  the 
War  of  the  Revolution,  War  of  1812,  and  the  War  of  the  Rebellion  has  descended  to  the  present  generation, 
and  history  will  record  that  Connecticut,  under  your  Excellency's  wise  administration,  placed  in  the  field  in  a 
little  over  sixty  days  more  than  three  thousand  four  hundred  (3,400)  men  uniformed,  armed,  equipped,  and 
ready  for  service.  It  may  be  further  added  that  one  thousand  one  hundred  and  forty-eight  (1,148)  of  this  num 
ber  were  in  excess  of  quotas  called  for. 

SIGNAL  CORPS. 

The  Brigade  Signal  Corps,  C.  N.  G.,  at  the  beginning  of  the  Spanish-American  war,  had  a  national  reputa 
tion.  General  A.  W.  Greeley,  Chief  Signal  Officer  of  the  Army,  was  anxious  that  they  should  have  opportunity 
for  active  service,  and  through  his  influence,  Captain  Howard  A.  Giddings,  commanding  Brigade  Signal  Corps, 
and  Lieutenant  Win.  F.  M.  Rogers,  commanding  3d  Section,  Avere  given  commissions  in  the  volunteer  Signal 
Corps,  and  several  of  the  enlisted  men  of  the  corps  were  appointed  non-commissioned  officers.  Their  experience 
demonstrated  that  visual  signaling  is  but  a  small  factor  in  the  work  of  a  Signal  Corps. 


20  INTRODUCTORY 

A  Signal  Corps,  to  be  up  to  the  present  standard  of  excellence,  in  addition  to  the  qualifications  men 
tioned,  must  understand  telegraphy  and  also  be  electricians.  Our  Brigade  Signal  Corps,  therefore,  will  have  to 

be  reorganized  with  this  idea  in  view. 

*******  ******* 

Our  Battalion  of  Naval  Reserves,  when  called  for  by  the  Government,  responded  almost  to  a  man.  Its 
officers  were  examined  by  officers  of  the  Navy,  and,  to  their  credit  be  it  said,  passed  the  examination  and  were 
commissioned  by  the  President. 

Upon  being  mustered  into  service,  the  naval  officers  absolutely  refused  to  take  the  equipments  which  had 
been  furnished  by  the  State,  and  it  was  with  difficulty,  and  after  considerable  correspondence  with  the  Naval 
Department,  that  Connecticut  was  enabled  to  send  her  Naval  Militia  to  their  ships  in  uniform.  They  were  finally 
accepted,  each  man  receipting  for  the  uniform  he  wore. 

Unlike  the  land  forces,  our  Naval  Reserves  lost  their  identity.  The  Officers  were  sent  to  different  vessels, 
and  the  men  placed  on  receiving  ships  as  ordinary  American  sailors.  It  is  to  be  regretted  that  this  action  was 
thought  necessary  by  the  Naval  Department,  as  our  battalion  was  composed  of  a  fine  body  of  intelligent  men, 

who  would  have  done  credit  to  the  State  had  opportunity  offered. 

*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *        .      * 

In  conclusion,  I  desire  to  heartily  commend  the  National  Guard  as  being  a  thoroughly  loyal  and  patriotic 
organization,  willing  and  anxious,  at  a  great  personal  sacrifice  to  themselves  if  necessary,  to  volunteer  into  the 
service  of  their  country,  and  while,  like  the  troops  of  other  states,  they  have  been  subjected  to  the  usual  camp 
fevers,  etc.,  no  great  discontent  has  manifested  itself,  and,  in  comparison  with  the  troops  of  other  states,  I  believe 

that  Connecticut,  with  a  proud  record,  stands  today  among  the  leaders  in  the  National  Guard  of  the  country.

Your  obedient  servant,

HISTORY 

of  the 

FIRST  REGIMENT  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY, 

Written  by  Colonel  Charles  L.  Burden,  Commanding. 


"  This  brief  account  of  a  few  of  the  most  salient 
facts  in  the  history  of  a  militia  regiment  serving  as 
volunteers  in  a  foreign  war  may  be  of  interest  to  the 
members  and  it  is  offered  with  apologies  for  its  incom 
pleteness.  On  behalf  of  the  command  the  many  courte 
sies  received  at  the  hands  of  friends  is  acknowledged. 
To  the  several  military  commands  at  Hartford,  the 
members  of  the  G.  A.  R.,  the  Second  Division  Naval 
Battalion,  the  First  Company,  Governor's  Foot  Guard; 
to  the  Third  Regiment,  C.  V.  I.,  and  the  Artillery 
commands  at  iSTiantic  the  Regiment  was  indebted  for 
courteous  attention  as  escort,  and  on  its  behalf  thanks 
are  hereby  extended. 

To  Mrs.  Sarah  T.  Kinney  as  regent  of  the  Con 
necticut  D.  A.  R.  especial  thanks  are  due  for  contribu 
tions  of  money,  of  wearing  apparel,  of  hospital  supplies 
and  for  a  prompt  and  eager  response  to  every  requisi 
tion  and  request  made  by  the  Chaplain  in  behalf  of  the 
sick  in  the  command.  The  regiment  is  also  indebted 
to  the  War  Committee  of  the  D.  A.  R.,  Mrs.  Frank 
L.  Howard,  chairman,  to  Colonel  and  Mrs.  Cheney, 
to  Miss  McCook,  to  the  ladies  of  Hartford,  East 
Hartford,  Niantic  and  "Washington,  who  gave  aid  in 
various  forms  and  abundant  good  wishes  and  kindly 
services. 

The  greater  part  of  the  cuts  in  the  book  are  from 
photographs  taken  by  Mr.  Waite,  who  has  kindly  per 
mitted  their  reproduction. 

The  duties  of  an  active  military  service  required  of 
the  officers,  hard  and  untiring  work,  particularly  in 
the  administrative  departments,  and  the  regiment  wras 
fortunate  in  having  the  services  of  Adjutant  Wain- 
wright,  Quartermaster-Commissary  Bronson,  Commis 
sary-Sergeant  Prescott,  Surgeon  Rockwell  and  Assis- 
ant  Surgeons  McCook  and  Griswold. 

The  Chaplain  was  untiring  in  the  work  of  his  own 
department  and  in  looking  after  the  physical  as  well 
as  the  spiritual  welfare  of  the  men.  He  was  constant 
in  his  efforts  to  aid,  interest  and  improve  the  men 
and  to  cheer  them  in  sickness.  Two  companies  in  the 
command  were  especially  fortunate  in  being  under  the 
direct  command  and  guidance  of  Lieutenant-Colonel 
Hammond  (Captain  Eighth  U.  S.  Cavalry),  who 
joined  the  Regiment  just  in  time  to  proceed  to  Plum 
Island  with  two  companies,  and  who  remained  with 
them  until  the  rendezvous  at  Niantic,  July  18th. 


The  Regiment  Avas  fortunate  in  having  no  causi 
for  complaint  in  the  matter  of  maintenance,  sub 
sistence,  transportation  or  medical  care. 

Early  in  the  year  1898  the  First  Regiment,  Con 
necticut  National  Guard,  was  in  effective  condition 
standing  high  among  the  organizations  which  made  u] 
the  active  militia  of  the  state.  With  the  rest  it  wa 
liable  to  military  duty  under  the  orders  of  His  Excel 
lency,  the  Governor,  as  Commander-in-Chief  of  th» 
military  forces  of  the  state. 

On  requisition  by  the  President  of  the  Unite* 
States  it  was  liable  for  service  for  duty  without  th 
state  for  a  time  not  exceeding  three  months  in  any  on 
year. 

The  troubles  in  Cuba  and  the  public  interest  tha 
had  been  excited,  both  in  and  out  of  Congress,  causes 
many  of  the  more  conservative  thinkers  to  fear  tha 
the  United  States  would  become  embroiled  in  a  wa 
with  Spain.  This  fear  grew  to  be  a  practical  certaint; 
when  news  was  received  of  the  blowing  up  of  the  Main 
in  Havana  harbor.  Very  soon  after  this  the  regimen 
was  thoroughly  canvassed,  a  list  prepared  of  all  th 
officers  and  men  showing  age,  occupation,  and  whethe 
married  or  single ;  also  a  list  of  the  house  and  busines 
address  of  each  man.  A  copy  of  the  list  with  addresse 
was  furnished  to  the  Southern  New  England  Telephon 
Company,  in  answer  to  their  offer  to  assist  in  notifyin, 
the  men  in  case  of  a  sudden  call. 

In  answer  to  an  inquiry  from  the  Adjutant  Gen 
eral's  Department,  the  following  report  was  made,  am 
it  is  here  set  out  in  full  to  show  the  condition  o 
affairs: 

HABTFORD,  MARCH  21,  1898. 

Brigadier-General  George  Haven, 

Adjutant  General  Connecticut: 

SIR  : —  I  have  the  honor  to  submit  the  fol 
lowing  report  regarding  the  First  Regiment, 
C.  N.  G.,  based  on  answers  to  inquiries  made : 

1.  The  condition  is  that  which  existed  on 
March  15,  1898,  and  at  that  time  there  were 
608   officers   and   men   in   the   line,   non-com 
batants  excepted. 

2.  Of   the   total   membership   in   the   line 
28  per  cent,  are  married. 

3.  The  average  age  as  based  upon  one  city 
and  one  country  company  is  24  years. 

In  Company  C  55  per  cent,  are  in  the 
20's  and  20  per  cent,  are  under  20  years  of 


25 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


age.  The  oldest  is  38  and  the  youngest  is  18. 
In  Company  B  90  per  cent,  of  the  member 
ship  are  in  the  20's  and  only  12  per  cent,  are 
married. 

4.  The    percentage    of    men    to    be    relied 
upon  for  duty  in  case  of  call  was  93  per  cent. 
This,   however,   in   my   opinion,   is   too   high. 
Under  present  conditions  80  per  cent,  would 
be  nearer  the  facts  for  reasons  which  will  be 
hereinafter  stated. 

5.  The  average  time  reported  as  required 
to    mobilize    the   several    companies    at    their 
armories   was   one  hour   and   thirty  minutes, 
except   as   to   Company   F,    Captain   Newton 
stating   that   he   did   not   know   how   long   it 
would  take  and  that  he  could  make  no  esti 
mate. 

In  my  opinion,  except  as  to  Company  G,  in 
which  the  men  are  scattered  over  quite  a  large 
territory,  the  command  could  be  mobilized 
within  two  hours  and  placed  on  the  train  at 
Hartford  within  three  hours  of  receipt  of  the 
call  at  these  Headquarters.  This  I  regard  as 
a  safe  estimate.  * 

6.  I  find  that  only  a  small  percentage  of 
the  command  are  engaged  in  clerical  occupa 
tions  ;    that    far    the    largest    percentage    are 
artizans  and  mechanics,  but  that  only  a  small 
percentage  have  out-of-door  employment. 

The  physical  condition  of  the  command 
from  a  hygienic  point  of  view  I  should  rate 
as  excellent. 

The  factor  of  weakness,  in  my  opinion,  if 
the  command  should  be  called  upon  for  a  tour 
of  duty  extending  beyond  ten  days,  would  be 
the  large  percentage  of  married  men.  Al 
though  all  would  want  to  serve  it  is  doubtful 
whether  they  should  be  permitted  to,  as  they 
are  in  most  instances  the  sole  support  of  the 
family.  In  the  case  of  the  officers  this  criti 
cism  may  not  apply,  but  in  the  case  of  the 
enlisted  men  who  are  married  I  have  the  fol 
lowing  request  to  make.  First,  that  you  will 
approve  the  discharge  promptly  at  the  re 
quest  of  the  commanding  officer  of  those 
married  men  whom  inquiry  has  shown  to  be 
so  circumstanced  'as  to  make  their  leaving  a 
hardship,  and  to  fill  their  places  with  compe 
tent  and  desirable  men  who  are  ex-members 
of  the  C.  !N".  G.,  or  other  military  organiza 
tion.  Second,  that  a  list  of  those  who  will 
volunteer  for  such  special  duty  and  can  be 
depended  upon  to  enlist  at  once  may  be 
quietly  prepared  by  the  commander  of  each 
organization  for  use,  and  enlistment  papers 
for  such  men  made  out,  signed  and  the  men 
held  on  the  waiting  list. 

My  reasons  for  asking  this  are,  that  if 
occasion  demands  I  want  to  take  the  field 
with  the  Eegiment  at  its  maximum  strength; 
that  I  want  in  such  command,  men  who  can 
leave  with  the  least  possible  loss  or  hardship  to 
those  dependent  on  them,  and  for  the  reason 
that  there  are  more  than  enough  men  com 
paratively  free  from  any  and  all  such  obliga 
tions  who  will  be  only  too  ready  to  fill  the 
ranks. 

My  request  applies  whether  the  duty  which 


the  Regiment  may  be  called  upon  to  perform 
shall  be  local  or  in  a  distant  section. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

CHARLES   L.   BURDETT, 
Colonel. 

Affairs  in  Washington  were  rapidly  drawing  to  a 
focus,  and  on  April  21st  Congress  declared  war  with 
Spain.  This  put  to  rest  any  doubts  as  to  whether 
there  would  be  war  or  not,  and  should  have  been  fair 
notice  to  all  the  states  that  a  call  would  be  made  on 
them  for  volunteers,  as  the  meager  twenty-five  thou 
sand  regulars  in  the  then  existing  army  were  totally 
insufficient. 

For  several  weeks,  and  particularly  after  the  order 
had  been  issued  by  the  Adjutant-General  of  the  state 
to  recruit  the  companies  in  each  regiment  to  a  maxi 
mum  of  eighty-four  officers  and  men,  members  of  the 
C.  N".  G.  had  been  confident  that  Connecticut  would  be 
called  upon  for  at  least  one  regiment,  but  no  hint  or 
indication  could  be  obtained  as  to  what  regiment 
might  be  chosen.  This  caused  the  whole  brigade  to 
be  made  uneasy  and  worried  by  the  uncertainty  as  to 
whether  they  would  have  the  desired  opportunity  to 
go  or  not. 

All  that  could  be  learned  was  that  if  a  regiment 
was  ready  when  the  call  was  received,  its  claim  would 
receive  consideration  by  the  Governor. 

The  First  Regiment  was  ready  when  the  call  came 
on  April  26th,  and  early  on  Tuesday,  April  27th,  the 
final  report  showing  the  condition  of  the  command  and 
its  readiness  was  submitted  to  the  Adjutant-General. 

Two  years  before,  or  in  May,  1896,  the  command 
ing  officer  of  the  regiment,  Colonel  Burdett,  had  ob 
tained  from  Governor  Coffin  the  privilege  of  using  the 
amount  of  money  that  it  would  cost  for  a  regimental 
field  day  in  the  purchase  of  supplies.  On  this  the 
regiment  had  been  outfitted  with  canvas  leggins,  haver 
sacks,  containing  meat  can,  knife,  fork  and  spoon, 
with  revolvers  for  the  officers,  and  a  little  later  cam 
paign  hats  were  obtained.  By  orders  of  the  Colonel, 
the  mess  outfits  had  been  kept  packed  in  the  original 
boxes,  and  as  a  result  in  April,  1898,  the  regiment 
was  the  only  one  in  the  state  equipped  in  this  most 
essential  regard.  The  small  supply  of  these  articles 
which  the  government  had  on  hand  were  exhausted  in 
supplying  the  regular  troops,  and  it  was  months 
before  the  needed  supplies  for  the  two  hundred  and 
fifty  thousand  volunteers,  or  even  a  small  part  of  them, 
could  be  obtained. 

Several  meetings  of  the  Council  of  Officers  of  the 
First  Regiment,  C.  N.  G.,  had  been  held  in  the  officers' 
room  in  the  armory  at  Hartford,  where  the  situation 
from  time  to  time  had  been  discussed.  In  General 
Orders  No.  6,  A.-G.  O.,  dated  Hartford,  April  22, 
1898,  the  several  commanding  officers  of  the  infantry 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


27 


companies  of  the  C.  N.  G.  had  been  ordered  to  recruit 
their  companies  to  the  maximum  strength  of  eighty- 
four  officers  and  men. 

On  Monday  evening,  April  25,  1898,  the  final  re 
ports  from  the  commanding  officers  of  the  several  or 
ganizations  were  received,  and  these  reports  showed 
that  all  the  officers  for  whom  the  War  Department 
would  find  places  in  the  regiment  required  and  ten 
companies  of  a  maximum  strength  of  eighty-four  men 
per  company  had  volunteered. 

A  report  to  this  effect  was  filed  in  the  office  of  the 
Adjutant-General  of  the  State  at  8:45  o'clock  A.  M. 
on  Tuesday,  April  26,  1898.  On  this  later  date 
Adjutant-General  Haven  received  from  the  War  De 
partment  the  Connecticut  quota  and  the  details  as  to 
the  total  number  of  infantry,  heavy  artillery,  and 
light  artillery  required,  this  under  the  official  call. 

On  Wednesday  morning,  April  27,  1898,  Governor 
Cooke,  in  a  personal  interview,  notified  Colonel 
Burdett  that  he  then  selected  the  First  Kegiment  to 
fill  the  infantry  quota,  and  later  in  the  day  an  official 
notice  was  received. 

The  commanding  officers  of  all  organizations  in 
the  First  Kegiment  were  at  once  notified  of  this  selec 
tion  and  active  steps  were  at  once  taken  to  put  the 
command  into  shape  for  immediate  service. 

During  April,  and  particularly  the  latter  part, 
Lieutenant  J.  M.  Wainwright,  Regimental  Paymaster, 
and  Doctor  R.  J.  Griswold,  Assistant  Surgeon,  had 
been  active  in  recruiting  and  drilling  a  provisional 
company,  although  this  work  was  sadly  hampered  by 
the  public  sentiment.  Just  what  this  was  is  shown 
by  the  following  extract  from  a  letter  dated  April  28, 
1898,  to  Senator  Hawley  from  Colonel  Burdett: 


"  Of  the  command  100  per  cent,  field  and 
line  officers  have  volunteered  for  two  years. 
85  per  cent,  of  the  whole  command  have  vol 
unteered.  They  have  done  this  in  the  face  of 
a  public  sentiment  which  has  been  pro 
nounced  and  violent.  Press^  business  men 
and  the  whole  public  have  been  out  of  sym 
pathy  not  only  with  the  war,  or  the  idea  of 
war,  but  with  the  officers  and  men  whose  sense 
of  duty  has  caused  them  to  stand  by  their 
country  when  actual  wTar  and  peril  are  facts." 


Whether  or  not  the  instructions  given  to  the  regi 
ment  in  years  past,  the  sentiment  aroused  and  the 
feeling  engendered  had  been  truly  military  in  character 
can  be  well  judged  by  this  record  made  by  the  First 
Regiment,  C.  N.  G.  In  fact,  100  per  cent,  of  the 
whole  command  as  it  existed  on  April  26,  1898,  vol 
unteered,  the  band  (who  are  non-combatants)  excepted. 

Not  only  did  every  officer  volunteer  for  whom  the 
schedule  of  organizations  outlined  by  the  War  Depart 
ment  made  a  place,  but  many  others  were  eager  to  go. 
No  paymaster  could  be  taken,  but  Lieutenant  Wain 


wright  would  not  be  denied.  No  inspector  of  Small 
Arms  Practice  could  go,  but  Captain  William  H. 
Stratton  went  down  to  camp  with  the  regiment  as  act 
ing  quartermaster,  and  after  that  as  aide,  and  for 
several  days  did  all  he  could  to  help  it. 

Captain  C.  W.  Burpee,  Ex.  I.  S.  A.  P.,  went  down 
with  the  regiment  as  special  aide  on  the  Colonel's  staff 
and  worked  for  weeks  in  the  tedious  routine  of  instruc 
tion  and  mustering,  until  it  was  clear  that  no  vacancy 
for  him  would  occur. 

General  Orders  No.  8,  A.-G.  O.,  Hartford,  April 
30,  1898,  directed  the  troops  making  up  the  quota  for 
Connecticut  to  rendezvous  at  Niantic,  Conn.,  Wednes 
day,  May  4,  1898,  and  in  this  same  order  Brigadier- 
General  George  Haven,  Adjutant-General,  was  desig 
nated  as  Post  Commandant. 

The  delay  from  April  27th  to  May  4th  was  solely 
due  to  failure  of  the  state  authorities  to  prepare  the 
camp  ground  at  Niantic  in  advance  for  the  reception 
of  troops.  The  regiment  was  ready  to  move  on  24 
hours'  notice. 

On  April  29,  1898,  a  communication  from  the 
Secretary  of  War  (including  S.  O.  No.  97  and  S.  O. 
No.  98,  A.-G.  O.,  TJ.  S.  A.)  was  received  by  Governor 
Cooke,  naming  the  rendezvous,  mustering  officer  and 
the  examining  officers.  On  Monday,  May  2,  1898,  Lieu 
tenant  Hamilton  Rowan,  TJ.  S.  Army,  reported  at 
Hartford  as  mustering  officer  and  went  with  the  com 
mand  to  Niantic  on  May  4th. 

Now  when  the  actual  reality  of  war  overcame  the 
adverse  sentiment  the  good  will  of  the  people  and  their 
intense  interest  in  the  command  was  shown.  The 
Court  of  Common  Council,  City  of  Hartford,  passed 
the  following: 

"  CITY  CLERK'S  OFFICE, 

HARTFORD,    CONN.,   MAY   3,    1898. 

By  concurrent  action  in  Court  of  Common 
Council,  the  following  were  received  and 
unanimously  passed: 

WHEREAS,  Our  country  is  at  war  with 
Spain  for  the  prevention  of  further  atrocities 
in  Cuba  and  the  guaranteeing  to  that  unhappy 
island  of  a  stable  government  by  and  for  the 
people,  and 

WHEREAS,  In  response  to  President  McKin- 
ley's  call  for  volunteers  the  First  Regiment, 
Connecticut  National  Guards,  Colonel 
Charles  L.  Burdett  commanding,  is  to  leave 
Hartford,  Wednesday,  May  4th,  for  the  state 
rendezvous  at  Niantic  to  be  mustered  into 
the  federal  service  as  the  first  part  of  the 
quota  of  this  state,  and 

WHEREAS,  The  commandant  and  several 
staff  officers  (one  of  them  a  member  of  this 
court)  of  this  regiment  and  five  companies 
are  our  fellow  citizens  of  Hartford,  therefore 
be  it

FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


RESOLVED,  That  we,  the  Court  of  Common 
Council  of  the  City  of  Hartford,  hereby 
place  on  record  our  commendation  of  the 
patriotic  spirit  shown  by  Hhe  First  in  its 
quick  response  to  the  call  to  arms,  a  response 
worthy  the  example  of  their  predecessors  in 
1776,  1812,  1846  and  1861. 

RESOLVED,  That  the  City  Hall  be  appro 
priately  decorated.  That  a  half  holiday  be 
given  to  the  school  children.  That  places  of 
business  be  closed.  That  escorts  be  tendered 
the  regiment  by  Grand  Army  Veterans,  the 
First  Company  of  Governor's  Foot  Guards, 
the  Putnam  Phalanx,  and  any  other  home 
companies  desiring  to  participate,  and  that 
the  column  be  reviewed  in  front  of  the  City 
Hall  by  his  Honor,  the  Mayor,  and  the  Court 
of  Common  Council; 

RESOLVED,  That  a  joint  special  committee, 
to  consist  of  his  Honor,  the  Mayor,  ex-officio 
chairman,  the  acting  president  of  the  Board 
of  Aldermen  and  three  Aldermen;  the  presi 
dent  of  the  Board  of  Common  Council  and 
five  Councilmen ;  be  and  hereby  are  appointed 
to  act  in  conjunction  with  Colonel  Burdett, 
the  commandants  of  Grand  Army  Posts  and 
of  the  Foot  Guard  and  Putnam  Phalanx,  to 
carry  these  resolutions  into  effect. 

RESOLVED,  That  these  resolutions  be  spread 
upon  the  minutes  and  that  a  copy  be  sent  to 
Colonel  Burdett,  commanding  the  First  Regi 
ment,  C.  1ST.  G. 

Approved    May    3rd,    1898.         Attest: 

(Signed)     HENRY  F.  SMITH, 

City  Clerk." 

May  4th  came,  and  the  regiment  as  it  moved  with 
full  ranks  and  with  most  soldierly  array  from  the 
armory  to  the  railroad  station,  was  most  heartily 
applauded  along  the  whole  line  of  march  by  an 
immense  crowd  of  people.  In  even  greater  enthu 
siasm  Co.  C  at  Rockville,  Co.  G  at  South  Manchester, 
and  Cos.  I),  E  and  I  at  New  Britain  were  escorted 
by  the  Grand  Army  Posts  and  other  organizations  and 
were  cheered  and  applauded.  The  special  escort  to 
the  regiment  tendered  by  the  First  Company  Gover 
nor's  Foot  Guard,  under  Major  E.  Henry  Hyde,  Jr., 
was  a  courtesy  highly  appreciated  by  the  regiment. 

His  Excellency,  Governor  Cook  and  members  of  his 
staff,  his  Honor,  Mayor  Preston,  and  members  of  the 
Common  Council,  reviewed  the  regiment  and  gave  it 
their  best  wishes. 

At  about  five  o'clock  P.  M.,  May  4,  1898,  the  regi 
ment  encamped  at  Camp  Haven,  Niantic,  Conn. 
Every  one  of  those  present,  except  the  band  (which 
could  not  be  recognized  as  a  separate  organization 
under  the  call)  had  volunteered  for  two  years  or  the 
war.  Not  a  man  was  taken  to  camp  who  had  not 
volunteered  to  go  before  leaving  the  home  station. 

Nothing  could  exceed  the  good  will  shown  by  the 
people  of  the  First  District  toward  the  First  Regiment 
as  soon  as  it  was  designated  to  represent  the  state  in 


the  war.  Cheney  Brothers,  of  South  Manchester, 
bought  a  life  insurance  policy  of  $2,000  for  each 
volunteer  of  Company  G  who  left  their  employ  to  go 
to  war,  and  assured  them  of  work  on  their  return. 
Colonel  Albert  A.  Pope,  of  the  Pope  Manufacturing 
Company,  paid  for  a  like  policy  of  $1,000  on  the  life 
of  each  employee  and  held  places  open  for  many. 
The  Hartford  City  Council,  in  addition  to  resolutions 
of  approval,  appropriated  $500  for  band  instruments 
for  the  regiment,  and  no  sum  was  put  to  better  use. 
Only  those  who  have  experienced  it  can  appreciate  the 
encouragement  of  band  music  in  a  lonely  camp  or  on 
the  march  in  the  field.  The  citizens  of  Hartford 
contributed  toward  and  bought  a  stand  of  colors, 
which  the  regiment  carried  during  their  war  service 
and  on  their  return  placed  in  the  custody  of  the  state. 

Promptly  on  the  arrival  of  the  command  at  Niantic 
on  the  afternoon  of  May  4,  1898,  Commissary  General 
A.  P.  Day  turned  over  to  Colonel  Burdett  the  keys  of 
the  storehouses  where  ample  subsistence  stores  for  the 
regiment  were  stored,  and  Colonel  Morgan,  Assistant 
Quartermaster-General,  turned  over  the  Buzzcott 
ovens  which  were  to  be  the  only  apparatus  usuable  by 
the  troops  for  service  in  the  field  for  cooking.  Several 
years  before  this,  and  on  this  same  camp  ground,  a  com 
pany  of  the  Fourth  Regiment,  C.  N.  G.  (then  under 
Colonel,  now  Brigadier-General,  Frost)  hastset  up  and 
used  this  same  kind  of  a  cooking  outfit  during  the 
week's  encampment,  and  it  would  have  been  an  excel 
lent  thing  if  this  lesson  had  been  thoroughly  learned 
and  practiced  in  subsequent  years  at  each  encamp 
ment  by  every  company  in  the  C.  N.  G. 

Under  the  personal  direction  of  Colonel  Burdett  the 
oven  of  each  command  was  established,  rations  for  one 
day  were  issued,  and  the  company  cooks,  who  were 
trained  cooks  specially  enlisted  for  the  work,  were 
busy  getting  supper.  The  trench  for  the  grate  of  the 
cooking  outfit  was  dug,  cord  wood  brought  from  a  pile 
and  cut  to  proper  size  and  length,  and  fires  started  by 
Ihe  company  details,  and  it  was  fully  seven  o'clock, 
and  in  some  instances  later,  before  supper  was  ready. 
By  direction  of  the  Colonel  commanding,  one  whole 
day's  rations  were  served  at  this  first  meal.  The  next 
two  day's  rations  were  consumed  in  one  day,  and  on 
the  next  two  days  three  days'  rations  were  consumed, 
and  it  was  nearly  two  weeks  before  the  cooks  and  men 
learned  how  to  properly  divide  and  serve  the  very 
ample  ration  issued  by  the  government  and  to  restrict 
each  man  to  his  share. 

Within  a  few  days,  and  in  fact  by  Friday  evening, 
May  6th,  severe  cold  rains  set  in,  and"  for  the  next 
two  weeks  cold  rains  or  wind  and  heavy  fogs  were 
frequent.  An  urgency  issue  of  rubber  ponchos,  heavy 
underclothing,  and  stockings  and  shoes  was  made  to 
the  regiment  by  the  state.  The  care  taken  of  the  men 
enabled  them  to  remain  in  excellent  health  in  spite  of 
the  adverse  weather. 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY

It  was  not  until  Saturday,  May  7th,  that  the  medical 
officers  began  the  official  examination  of  the  men  of 
the  First  Regiment,  although  the  command  was  ready 
on  the  5th,  and  on  that  day  about  eighty  men  of  Com 
pany  A  were  examined.  The  rate  of  examination  was 
noted  as  well  as  the  number  thrown  out,  and  judging 
from  the  result  in  this  company,  it  appeared  that  ten 
days  would  be  required  for  the  physical  examination, 
and  that  fifteen  per  cent,  of  loss  would  be  incurred. 
This  total  appeared  to  be  too  much,  and  the  need  of 
prompt  recruiting  was  also  evident.  This  was  called 
to  the  attention  of  General  George  Haven,  Adjutant- 
General  of  the  State,  and  Post  Commandant,  and  an 
effort  made  to  have  the  work  expedited,  but  without 
success. 

Early  on  Monday,  May  9th,  Colonel  Burdett  ob 
tained  from  Governor  Cooke  in  Hartford,  permission  to 
recruit  in  advance  to  fill  organizations,  but  by  oral 
instructions  from  Assistant  Adjutant-General  Landers, 
based  on  a  complaint  from  the  Second  Regiment,  the 
recruiting  ground  was  limited  to  the  First  Congres 
sional  District,  the  order  coming  from  the  Governor. 

On  the  physical  examination  of  the  men  Com 
pany  C,  of  Rockville,  stood  at  a  high  rate;  other 
companies  lost  as  high  as  twenty-six  per  cent. 
Recruiting  kept  pace  with  the  losses,  and  although 
many  of  the  recruits  sent  to  camp  were  not  accepted 
the  quota  was  finally  completed  without  any  delay,  and 
on  May  18,  1898,  the  Field,  Staff,  and  nine  companies 
of  the  regiment  were  mustered  into  the  United  States 
service  by  Lieutenant  Rowan,  the  tenth  company  being 
mustered  in  on  the  19th. 

A  regular  routine  of  drill  was  established  and  the 
officers  and  non-commissioned  officers  were  working 
hard  instructing  recruits,  as  well  as  the  older  men,  in 
drill  and  camp  duties.  Particular  attention  was  paid 
to  individual  instruction,  so  that  in  the  extended  order 
drill  the  men  could  intelligently  take  the  part  required 
by  the  new  tactics  where  so  much  is  left  to  the  smaller 
sub-divisions  of  a  regiment,  or  even  of  a  company. 

On  Sunday  afternoon,  May  22,  1898,  'a  message 
was  received  from  Captain  Crawford,  A.  A.  Q.  M., 
at  Fort  Trumbull,  Xew  London,  Conn.,  asking  about 
the  transportation  of  the  First  Regiment  to  the  several 
positions  to  which  the  companies  had  been  assigned, 
and  this  was  the  first  notice  received  of  the  assign 
ment.  At  8 :20  o'clock  the  next  morning  an  official 
copy  of  the  order,  as  follows,  was  received :

Companies  were  at  once  designated  for  the  several 
positions,  as  follows : 

Fort  Preble,  Portland,  Me.,  Companies  K  and  F. 
Fort  Constitution, 

Portsmouth,  N.  H.,         Company  C. 
Gull  Island,  N.  Y.,  Company  B. 

Plum  Island,  1ST.  Y.,  Companies  E  and  I. 

To  secure  the  needed  transportation,  arrangements 
had  to  be  made  with  the  Passenger  Department  of  the 
K  Y.,  X.  H.  &  H.  R.  R.  Co.,  and  they  had  to  arrange 
with  three  other  railroad  companies  before  a  time 
schedule  for  the  train  could  be  issued.  The  Commis 
sary  Department,  under  the  immediate  charge  of 
Commissary-Sergeant  A.  N.  Prescott,  had  to  issue  the 
needed  rations  and  make  arrangements  also  for  travel 
rations,  and  the  Quartermaster's  Department,  under 
Quartermaster  A.  II.  Bronson,  had  to  make  the  neces 
sary  arrangements  for  the  transportation  of  the  com 
mands  and  all  baggage  to  the  railroad  station,  and  for 
the  train  to  transport  the  whole.  All  these  details  were 
so  promptly  arranged  and  completed  that  at  six  o'clock 
Monday  evening  of  the  day  the  order  was  received 
Company  C  reported  at  Fort  Constitution,  N".  H.,  and 
at  eight  o'clock  that  same  evening  Companies  F  and 
K  reported  at  Fort  Preble,  Portland,  Me.,  the  several 
companies  being  armed,  uniformed  and  equipped  and 
provided  with  camp  equipage,  such  as  it  was. 

The  regular  army  officers  at  the  posts  to  which 
these  companies  were  assigned  were  much  surprised 
at  the  prompt  arrival  of  the  companies,  and  Com 
panies  K  and  F  were  obliged  to  sleep  in  the  cars  the 
first  night,  as  no  arrangements  had  been  made  to 
locate  their  camp. 

As  but  very  little  was  known  regarding  Plum 
Island  and  Gull  Island,  Surgeon  Griswold  was  sent 
on  the  9  :06  train  Monday  morning  to  New  London, 
to  Major  Leach,  of  the  U.  S.  Engineer  Department, 
with  request  that  he  be  permitted  to  examine  the  two

islands  and  report  on  available  camp  sites  and  general 
condition  of  the  places,  ascertaining  from  the  condi 
tion  of  the  workmen  who  were  employed  there,  what 
the  conditions  were  from  a  sanitary  point  of  view,  and 
also  to  bring  back  sterilized  samples  of  the  water  avail 
able  at  each  place.  At  six  o'clock  Tuesday  morning  Lieu 
tenant  Griswold  reported  back  to  Camp  Haven  with 
a  sample  of  the  water  from  Plum  Island,  and  further 
reported  that  there  was  no  adequate  water  supply  at 
Gull  Island.  The  condition  of  the  workmen  at  Plum 
Island,  the  diseases  which  had  been  prevalent  there 
during  the  past  year,  and  all  details  needed  for  a 
correct  understanding  of  the  sanitary  questions  had 
been  obtained  and  were  reported  on  by  Lieutenant 
Griswold,  a  camp  site  being  also  recommended. 

Beginning  with  Saturday,  May  7,  1898,  the 
weather  was  most  inclement,  cold  rains  and  snow 
squalls  severely  taxing  the  health  and  patience  of  the 
officers  and  men.  Tents  were  blown  down  during  the 
rain  storms  and  the  occupants  drenched.  This,  how 
ever,  was  merely  a  matter  of  experience  that  did  not 
disturb  the  command  very  much,  as  they  were  buoyed 
up  with  the  idea  that  they  were  soon  to  see  active 
service,  and  very  little  illness  resulted. 

Lieutenant-Colonel  Red-field,  however,  who  had  not 
fully  recovered  from  the  effects  of  a  serious  illness  of 
a  few  years  previous,  took  a  severe  cold,  but  attended 
to  his  duties  until  Surgeon  Rockwell  directed  that  he 
be  sent  away  from  camp  as  his  only  chance  of  re 
covery.  The  case  proved  so  serious  that  on  the  advice 
of  Dr.  Howe,  Dr.  Morgan  and  Surgeon  Rockwell,  the 
Colonel  commanding  the  regiment  requested  the  resig 
nation  of  the  Lieutenant-Colonel,  which  resignation 
was  handed  in. 

As  soon  as  the  certainty  of  a  vacancy  was  learned, 
the  Colonel  commanding  the  regiment  obtained  from 
Governor  Cooke  permission  to  nominate  a  successor  to 
Lieutenant-Colonel  Redfield.  Before  making  this  re 
quest  he  had  telegraphed  to  Captain  A.  G.  Hammond, 
Eighth  Cavalry,  TJ.  S.  A.,  then  stationed  at  Fort 
Leavenworth,  Kansas,  asking  him  if  he  would  accept 
the  position  if  it  could  be  obtained.  Captain  Ham 
mond  was  a  Hartford  man,  a  "West  Point  graduate, 
and  well  known  to  many  of  the  officers  in  the  C.  N.  G. 
In  reply  to  this  telegram  Captain  Hammond  at  once 
replied  "  Yes,  with  thanks."  He  was  at  once  nomi 
nated  for  the  position  by  the  Colonel,  and  leave  of 
absence  from  his  regular  command  was  obtained,  this 
through  the  assistance  of  General  Hawley,  but  it  was 
not  until  May  24,  1898,  that  Captain  Hammond  could 
get  to  Niantic. 

The  appointment  of  the  regular  army  officer  in 
the  regiment  was  wholly  at  the  instance  of  Colonel 
Burdett,  and  was  not  requested  because  there  was  any 
doubt  about  the  ability  of  the  officers  to  take  care  of 
the  men,  or  any  doubt  about  their  knowledge  of  tactics 
or  their  main  duties,  but  it  was  in  order  that  the 


regiment  might  have  the  benefit  of  that  intimate 
knowledge  with  paper  work,  the  customs  of  the  service, 
and  the  rules  and  regulations  that  can  be  learned  only 
from  actual  experience  in  the  regular  army,  and  even 
then  not  by  all. 

Lieutenant-Colonel  Hammond  received  his  commis 
sion  from  the  governor  and  was  mustered  into  the 
service  on  May  26,  1898,  in  time  to  proceed  at  a  later 
date  with  Companies  E  and  I  to  Plum  Island.  The 
heavy  weather,  fogs  and  rain  storms  had  prevented 
the  companies  from  going  to  the  island,  as  the  owners 
of  the  tug-boat  and  barge  repeatedly  reported  from 
New  London  that  they  did  not  dare  undertake  the  trip. 
Finally,  on  May  27th,  the  two  companies  under  com 
mand  of  Lieutenant-Colonel  Hammond,  were  loaded 
on  to  a  barge  with  arms,  uniforms,  camp  equipage 
and  rations,  and  taken  in  tow  by  a  tug.  They  had 
hardly  cleared  Niantic  Bay  before  a  heavy  fog  shut  in, 
and  the  captain  of  the  tug-boat  shut  off  steam  and 
allowed  the  tow  to  drift.  In  this  emergency  Lieu 
tenant  Griswold,  at  his  own  request,  was  taken  on 
board  of  the  tug-boat  and  soon  persuaded  the  pilot 
that  he  could  help  him  out.  Lieutenant  Griswold  was 
born  in  Lyme,  near  the  shore,  and  from  a  boy  had 
been  familiar  with  the  Sound  and  with  the  sailing  of 
vessels;  in  fact,  he  held  a  pilot's  license  along  the 
Sound  and  Massachusetts  Bay.  The  tug-boat  was 
again  soon  under  steam  and  with  the  help  of  Lieuten 
ant  Griswold  the  correct  land  fall  was  made  on  the 
eastern  side  of  Plum  Island  and  the  troops  disem 
barked  without  any  loss. 

In  answer  to  the  telegraphic  report,  sent  to  Head 
quarters  of  the  Department  on  May  21st,  stating  the 
lack  of  water  on  Gull  Island,  orders  were  received 
not  to  send  the  company  to  that  place  until  further 
orders.  Provision  having  been  made  for  a  proper  water 
supply,  Company  B,  under  Captain  Moran,  left  Camp 
Haven  on  June  8,  1898,  by  the  steamer  Manhansett, 
and  at  12  :30  o'clock  arrived  at  the  island  and  pitched 
camp. 

An  order  from  the  Headquarter's  Department  of 
the  East,  under  date  of  June  6,  1898,  contained  the 
following  extract  from  S.  O.  No.  122: 

"  1.  The  following  changes  of  and  assign 
ments  to  stations  are  ordered : — 

"  The  Colonel,  Headquarters,  unassigned 
field  officers  and  six  companies  of  the  First 
Connecticut  Volunteer  Infantry,  now  at 
Niantic,  Conn.,  will  proceed  to  and  take  sta 
tion  at  Fort  Knox,  near  Bucksport,  Me." 

This  order  was  received  at  Camp  Haven  a  day  or 
two  after  its  date,  and  inquiry  at  once  made  as  to  the 
whereabouts  of  Fort  Knox.  None  of  the  officers  or 
men  of  the  United  States  artillery,  stationed  at  Fort 
Trumbull,  New  London,  Conn.,  knew  where  the  place 
was,  and  neither  Mr.  Hempstead  of  the  Passenger 
Department  of  the  N.  Y.,  N.  H.  &  H.  R.  R.  Co.,  nor

any  of  the  force  in  that  office  in  New  Haven,  could 
tell  anything  about  it,  and,  in  fact,  the  best  the  trans 
portation  agent  could  do  was  to  get  the  command  to 
Bucksport,  Me.  Finally,  some  one  in  New  London 
was  discovered  who  reported  that  Fort  Knox  was  down 
the  river  from  Bucksport,  and  could  only  be  reached 
by  about  a  half  day's  transportation  on  barges  or  river 
steamers.  As  a  matter  of  fact,  Fort  Knox  is  on  the 
west  bank  of  the  Penobscot  River,  directly  opposite 
Bucksport,  eighteen  miles  from  Bangor  and  forty-five 
miles  from  the  coast  of  Maine.  On  June  10th  all 
transportation  arrangements  having  been  completed 
by  Quartermaster  Bronson,  the  headquarters  and  four 
companies  of  the  regiment  proceeded  to  Fort  Knox. 

From  the  first  it  had  been  understood  that  the 
regimental  band  would  not  volunteer  for  service  with 
the  regiment,  but  it  had  been  ordered  into  camp  for 
ten  days.  The  orders  from  the  War  Department  pro 
vided  for  the  raising  of  a  band  from  the  strength  of 
a  regiment,  and  knowing  the  great  delay  and  the  prac 
tical  impossibility  of  getting  musical  instruments  in 
any  sort  of  time  from  the  general  government,  Captain 
John  K.  Williams,  of  Hartford,  ex-Adjutant  of  the 
regiment,  had  been  active  in  getting  the  City  of  Hart 
ford  to  purchase  the  needed  instruments  and  present 
them  to  the  regiment.  On  May  17th,  Captain  Wil 
liams  visited  camp  at  Niantic  and  conferred  with  the 
officers  about  the  matter,  and  soon  after  that  the  in 
struments  were  received  and  a  band  organized.  In  a 
very  short  time,  owing  to  the  hard  work  done  by 
Bandmaster  Kennedy  and  the  members  of  the  band, 
they  could  perform  a  few  marches  and  other  pieces 
in  a  manner  fairly  satisfactory,  and  they  became  in 
time  a  credit  to  the  regiment  and  were  a  most  efficient 
factor  in  keeping  up  the  spirits  and  health  of  the  men 
in  camp. 

On  May  30,  1898,  all  the  troops  remaining  in  Camp 
Haven,  including  the  four  companies  of  the  regiment, 
the  heavy  artillery  and  the  light  artillery  companies, 
at  the  invitation  of  the  members  of  the  Grand  Army 
Post  located  at  jSTiantic,  took  part  in  the  parade  and 
in  the  services  at  the  decoration  of  the  graves  of 
departed  comrades,  Chaplain  Kelsey  delivering  the 
oration.  It  was  a  memorable  occasion.  Thirty-three 
years  elapsed  since  the  last  war  in  which  the  United 
States  had  been  involved  had  ended,  and  now  at  the 
outset  of  another  war  troops  new  in  the  service  were 
taking  part  in  honors  paid  to  those  soldiers  of  the 
nation  who  had  served  in  the  last  war,  but  who  had 
passed  away,  and  in  doing  so  stood  shoulder  to 
shoulder  with  the  small  remnant  of  living  veterans. 

Ever  since  war  had  been  declared  on  April  21, 
1898,  the  people  along  the  coast  had  been  hearing  guns 
of  Spanish  cruisers  and  seeing  ghosts  of  hostile  battle 
ships.  The  good  people  of  Boston  had  been  sending 
valuables  and  securities  to  Worcester  and  to  Spring 


field  until  the  safe  deposit  vaults  in  those  places  were 
taxed  to  their  utmost.  The  people  of  Bangor,  Me., 
had  petitioned  Congress  for  protection  and  the  War 
Department  was,  by  the  middle  of  May,  almost  filled 
with  petitions  for  protection  and  requests  of  like  im 
port. 

The  First  Regiment,  C.  V.  I.,  consisting  of  ten 
companies  of  a  maximum  strength  of  eighty-four 
members  per  company,  armed,  uniformed  and 
equipped  and  provided  with  camp  equipage,  such  as 
it  was,  were  available  for  an  important  duty  and  were 
assigned  to  that  duty.  This  was  perhaps  done  as  much, 
however,  to  quiet  the  fears  and  stop  the  annoyance, 
as  for  anything  else,  because  by  this  time  the  fate  of 
Montojo's  fleet  at  Manila  had  been  fully  known,  and 
as  early  as  May  19th  the  War  Department  had  been 
fully  advised  of  the  presence  of  Cervera's  squadron  in 
Santiago  harbor. 

General  Greely,  of  the  Signal  Corps,  had  advised 
the  War  Department  of  an  authenic  report  to  that 
effect  received  from  a  member  of  the  U.  S.  Signal 
Corps  in  the  employ  of  the  cable  company  at  Havana. 

This  was,  of  course,  not  generally  known,  but  is 
of  interest  taken  in  connection  with  the  failure  of  the 
War  Department  to  supply  the  regiment  thus  assigned 
to  coast  reserve  duty  with  any  ammunition. 

In  the  latter  part  of  April,  after  the  regiment  had 
been  designated  for  duty,  special  care  had  been  taken 
in  the  organization  of  the  several  departments.  The 
hospital  corps,  then  under  the  immediate  command  of 
Lieutenant  Griswold,  Assistant  Surgeon,  was  outfitted 
with  medical  supplies  and  an  efficient  force  of  hospital 
stewards  and  assistants  were  enrolled. 

The  captains  of  the  several  companies  were  di 
rected  to  take  all  the  ball  cartridges  that  they  had  on 
hand  for  target  practice  and  all  they  could  get  hold 
of,  as  it  was  uncertain  when  or  how  soon  supplies  of 
this  kind  could  be  issued  by  the  general  government. 
Many  of  the  rifles  furnished  to  the  command  by  the 
state  were  defective  and  practically  useless,  but  the 
bayonets  Avere  all  in  first-class  shape. 

On  May  19,  1898,  as  soon  as  the  regiment  had  been 
mustered  into  the  United  States  service,  a  requisition 
was  made  for  the  needed  supply  of  ball  cartridges,  but 
the  answer  from  the  Ordnance  Department  was  that 
none  Avould  be  issued  until  the  regiment  reached  its 
designated  post  or  camp.  When  Lieutenant-Colonel 
Redfield  resigned  he  used  all  the  pay  coming  to  him 
for  the  purchase  of  ball  cartridges,  which  he  presented 
to  the  regiment.  The  cartridges  brought  by  the  sev 
eral  commands  in  the  regiment,  except  in  the  case 
of  one  company,  were  all  put  into  a  common  stock 
and  then  distributed  equally  among  the  several  com 
panies  as  they  left  for  their  different  posts.  Com 
panies  K,  F  and  C  each  received  five  rounds  per 
man.  Companies  E  and  I  at  Plum  Island  each 


32 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


received  seven  rounds  per  man,  and  Company  B  at 
Gull  Island  seven  rounds  per  man.  There  was  about 
the  same  number  of  rounds  per  man  left  for  each  of 
the  remaining  companies.  The  four  thousand  rounds 
given  by  Lieutenant-Colonel  Redfield  were  distributed 
pro  rata  among  the  companies,  but  except  for  the  ten 
rounds  per  man  neither  of  the  companies  at  Fort 
Knox,  Gull  Island  or  at  Plum  Island  during  the  whole 
term  of  their  occupancy  received  another  round  from 
any  source. 

The  assignment  of  the  different  companies  of  the 
regiment  to  the  several  widely  separated  posts  took 
them  practically  out  from  under  the  command  of  the 
Colonel,  except  as  to  the  companies  at  the  post  where 
headquarters  were  located.  Lieutenant-Colonel  Ham 
mond  at  Plum  Island  had  full  control  and  care  of 
Companies  E  and  I;  Captain  Moran  at  Gull  Island 
had  full  control  and  was  responsible  alone  for  the  con 
dition  and  instruction  of  Company  B,  and  the  same 
was  true  of  Captain  Laubscher  with  Company  C  at 
Fort  Constitution,  and  Captain  Saunders,  senior  in 
command,  at  Camp  Burdett,  Fort  Preble,  of  Com 
panies  F  and  K. 

At  an  early  hour  on  the  morning  of  June  10,  1898, 
the  first  section  of  the  train  with  the  headquarters 
command  arrived  at  Bucksport,  Me.,  and  the  troops 
were  quickly  disembarked.  By  this  time  the  exact 
location  of  Fort  Knox  had  been  learned  and  Company 
H  was  soon  marched  on  board  the  ferry  boat  H.  G. 
Totten  and  crossed  the  river  to  Prospect,  where  the 
command  landed.  The  fort  is  built  on  high  ground, 
just  at  the  head  of  the  narrows  in  the  river  at  this 
point,  and  with  surroundings  that  rendered  it  difficult 
to  find  even  an  acre  of  level  ground. 

The  Colonel  decided  quickly  not  to  quarter  the 
troops  in  the  old  fort,  although  there  was  ample  room, 
but  selected  a  spot  to  the  south  and  west  of  the  fort, 
just  below  an  old  railroad  embankment  and  on  a 
small  clearing  in  the  birch  woods.  The  grass  was 
quickly  mowed,  the  camp  laid  out,  and  by  noon  the 
company  kitchens  were  located  and  the  company  cooks 
busy  preparing  the  dinner.  No  attempt  was  made  at 
any  tactical  layout  of  the  camp,  but  places  were  chosen 
for  the  headquarters  and  staff  tents  and  for  the  officers' 
street  and  the  tents  of  the  men  where  there  would  be 
the  best  chance  to  preserve  the  health  of  the  men. 

Assistant  Surgeon  McCook  had  obtained  samples 
of  the  water  available  and  at  once  analyzed  them, 
guards  being  put  over  the  wells  until  the  result  of  the 
examination  could  be  learned.  He  was  also  charged 
with  the  selection  of  proper  places  for  the  sinks,  while 
Surgeon  Rockwell  looked  out  for  the  establishment  of 
the  hospital  and  attended  to  his  general  duties  as  sur 
geon  of  the  regiment. 

Details  were  at  once  made  for  the  Quartermaster, 
Commissary  and  other  departments  and  proper  places 


found  in  the  fort  for  the  storage  of  all  supplies  and 
stores.  A  pioneer  company  of  some  thirty-two  men 
was  organized  and  the  work  of  under-draining  the 
camp,  building  corduroy  roads  over  moist  places  and 
of  properly  flooring  the  tents  was  carried  on.  A  signal 
corps  was  organized  under  command  of  Lieutenant 
Cosgrove  of  the  First  Battalion,  and  in  a  short  time 
became  extremely  proficient.  Soon  after  the  command 
arrived  at  Fort  Knox  recruits  were  received  under 
the  orders,  which  increased  the  membership  of  the 
companies  to  one  hundred  and  nine  men,  and  the  work 
of  drilling  these  men  was  divided  among  the  several 
officers  and  non-commissioned  officers. 

•  Lumber  was  obtained,  the  tents  were  floored  and 
good  storehouses  were  built.  The  ground  all  about  the 
camp  for  a  distance  of  about  sixty  feet  was  cleared  of 
all  trees  and  undergrowth  and  a  perfect  system  of 
sanitation  adopted  and  enforced. 

Orders  being  issued  from  the  War  Department  that 
all  troops  stationed  at  forts  or  fortified  places  should 
be  instructed  in  heavy  artillery  practice,  this  work  was 
begun  at  Fort  Knox  under  the  supervision  of  Major 
Hickey,  details  from  each  of  the  companies  being 
drilled  daily  on  the  heavy  guns. 

Bakers  were  detailed  from  the  command  and  they 
had  the  charge  of  baking  some  four  hundred  loaves  of 
bread  per  day  to  supply  the  troops.  A  detail  of  three 
carpenters  was  made  and  tools  provided  and  with  these 
one  of  the  old  rooms  at  ihe  fort  intended  for  officers 
was  fitted  up  with  writing  desks,  and  this  served  as  a 
reading  room  for  the  men.  Wood  was  cut  and  fires 
built  in  the  large  open  fire  places,  providing  a  pleasant 
resort  in  stormy  weather  and  in  the  evenings.  Owing 
to  the  close  supervision  of  Major  Rockwell  and  his 
assistants  the  health  of  the  command  was  remarkably 
good,  no  diseases  of  an  infectious  nature  breaking  out, 
nor  any  filth  diseases  occurring;  in  fact,  there  was  no 
serious  illness  during  the  occupancy  of  the  camp. 

After  an  extended  reconnoissance  of  the  surround 
ing  country  a  place  was  found  where  a  two  hundred 
yard  rifle  range  could  be  established  through  the  woods 
after  some  heavy  cutting  of  timber.  The  pioneer  com 
pany  took  this  in  charge,  and  by  the  early  part  of 
July  had  the  ground  cleared  and  ready  for  the  con 
struction  of  butts  and  targets.  When  notice  was  re 
ceived  early  in  July  that  Company  L  had  been  ordered 
to  report  at  Camp  Knox  without  arms,  uniforms, 
equipment  or  camp  equipage,  prompt  steps  were  taken 
to  fit  up  the  two  rooms  at  the  fort  that  had  been  used 
as  a  library  and  workshop,  as  barracks.  Lumber  was 
obtained  and  a  frame  work  erected,  so  that  the  men 
when  they  arrived  were  made  comfortable  indoors. 
This  protection  was  needed,  for  while  the  weather  was 
warm  during  the  day  it  was  extremely  cold  at  night 
and  the  men  suffered  unless  well  protected  with  cloth 
ing  and  blankets.

A  limited  number  of  passes  were  issued  each  day, 
allowing  the  men  to  go  to  Bucksport,  and  the  privilege 
was  not  abused.  The  men  gained  an  excellent  record 
for  good  conduct  on  the  whole  and  were  frequently 
commended  by  the  town  officials. 

A  stand  of  colors  for  the  regiment  were  to  be  pre 
sented  by  the  citizens  of  Hartford,  and  the  Fourth  of 
July  was  selected  as  the  proper  time  and  Fort  Knox 
as  the  proper  place,  to  make  the  presentation.  Early 
in  July  the  Colonel  Commanding  was  surprised  to 
receive  an  order  from  the  Department  of  the  East 
ordering  the  troops  at  Fort  Knox  to  parade  at  Bangor 
on  the  Fourth  of  July,  provided  that  the  government 
should  be  put  to  no  expense  thereby.  It  was  learned 
that  this  order  had  been  obtained  at  the  instance  of  the 
Congressman  from  that  district,  and  although  other 
plans  had  been  made  for  the  celebration  of  the  national 
holiday,  the  command  got  ready  for  the  parade  as 
ordered.  On  July  4th  Companies  A,  D,  G  and  H, 
and  all  of  the  officers,  except  those  detailed  for  special 
duty  embarked  on  a  steamer  for  Bangor,  where  they 
arrived  in  good  time  to  take  part  in  the  parade.  The 
command  was  given  a  hearty  reception  and  treated  in 
a  most  hospitable  manner  by  the  citizens  of  Bangor, 
and  the  men  were  highly  pleased  with  the  reception. 
Early  in  the  afternoon  they  returned  to  Bucksport, 
where  a  parade  was  held,  and  Alderman  Hansling  and 
Councilman  Countryman,  of  the  Hartford  City  Coun 
cil,  presented  the  handsome  stand  of  colors  of  silk  to 
the  regiment,  the  Colonel  accepting  in  a  brief  speech. 
Officers  and  men  were  kept  extremely  busy  during 
the  whole  time  they  were  at  Camp  Knox,  learning  the 
many  duties  and  anxiously  waiting  the  time  when  they 
might  receive  orders  to  go  to  the  front. 

Just  below  the  fort,  in  the  channel  on  the  west 
side  of  Verona  Island,  submarine  mines  had  been 
placed  in  position  as  part  of  the  defense  of  the  Pen- 
obscot  River,  and  the  troops  were  stationed  at  the  fort 
for  the  purpose  of  guarding  these  mines,  as  well  as 
for  the  purpose  of  providing  a  garrison  for  the  fort 
and  the  batteries.  The  wires  connected  to  these  mines 
were  led  into  a  casement  in  the  lower  part  of  the 
fort,  where  an  electric  battery  was  established,  by 
means  of  which  the  mines  could  be  exploded.  There 
were  strict  regulations  regarding  the  use  of  this  chan 
nel  where  the  mines  were  placed,  and  patrol  boats 
were  stationed  both  above  and  below  the  defense.  The 
officer  commanding  the  post  had  charge  of  this  mine 
field,  although  it  was  under  the  direct  supervision  of 
Major  Hoxie,  United  States  Engineer  Corps,  in  charge 
of  the  district.  The  instructions  to  the  commanding 
officer  of  Fort  Knox  on  this  point  were  as  follows: 

"  The  Ordnance  Sergeant  at  Fort  Knox  is 
in  charge  of  the  mining  casemate  and  is 
instructed  in  respect  to  turning  on  the  bat 
teries  when  the  mines  are  to  be  made  ready 
for  the  approach  of  an  enemy.  He  is  in 


structed  to  report  to  you  for  orders  in  such 
emergency  and  to  permit  no  one  except  your 
self  to  have  access  to  the  mining  casemates. 
R.  IIOXIE, 

Chief  of  Mining  Engineers." 

The  camp  occupied  by  Companies  F  and  K  had 
been  named  by  the  officers  of  the  companies  after  the 
colonel  commanding  the  regiment.  The  work  was 
taken  up  and  conducted  at  this  camp  in  the  manner 
characteristic  of  the  two  companies,  the  officers  and 
men  rapidly  becoming  proficient  in  all  the  duties  of 
the  soldier.  The  following  is  a  copy  of  the  first  order 
issued  at  this  camp: 

"CAMP  BURDETT, 

NEAR  FORT  PREIJLE,  ME., 

SPECIAL  ORDER,  NO.  1,      May  25,  1898. 

I.  The  encampment  of  the  battalion  com 
posed  of  Companies  K  and  F,  1st  Infantry, 
Conn.  Volunteers,  will  be  designated  '  Camp 
Burdett,'    in    honor    of    Colonel    Charles    L. 
Burdett,   commanding   regiment. 

II.  2nd    Lieut.    Nathaniel    G.    Valentine, 
Company  K,  is  hereby  detailed  as  Adjutant, 
Quartermaster,    Commissary    of    Subsistence 
and  Ordnance  Officer  of  the  camp. 

III.  Serg.    Herbert    G.    Bailey,    Company 
F,  is  hereby  detailed  as  Sergeant  Major  of 
the  camp. 

IV.  Private  George  F.  Stivens,  Company 
F,    is    hereby    detailed    as    Acting    Hospital 
Steward  of  the  camp.    Privates  R.  A.  McKee 
and  E.  H.  Rathbun,  Company  K,  will  report 
to   him   for   daily  duty  in  hospital   work   at 
such  hour  as  he  may  direct. 

V.  First    Sergeants   will   deliver   morning 
reports  to  the  Sergeant  Major  at  eight  o'clock 
a.  m.,  daily. 

HENRY  H.  SAUNDERS, 

CAPTAIN  FIRST  INFANTRY,   CONN.   VOL., 
COMMANDING  CAMP/' 

The  officers  and  men  stationed  at  this  camp  rapidly 
earned  the  good  will  and  esteem  of  the  regular  army 
officers  and  of  the  citizens  of  Portland,  and  the  latter 
took  great  pains  to  entertain  the  Connecticut  troops, 
and  so  often  were  social  functions  held  in  Portland 
and  attended  by  the  men  of  the  command  that  the 
impression  got  abroad  that  the  service  was  rather  a 
picnic  than  a  soldier's  life,  but  this  impression  was 
unfounded,  because  it  lost  sight  wholly  of  the  con 
tinued  hard  work  being  done  by  the  whole  force  in 
their  regular  line  of  work.  The  companies  took  part 
in  the  parade  in  Portland  on  July  4th  and  received 
great  commendation. 

The  camp  of  Company  0  at  Fort  Constitution, 
Portsmouth,  N.  H.,  was  located  on  a  rather  rough 
piece  of  ground,  but  it  was  the  best  available,  and 
the  company,  although  a  hardy  set  of  men  (it  will 
be  remembered  that  this  company  passed  nearly  a 


34 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


hundred  per  cent,  of  its  men  on  the  physical  examina 
tion  before  being  mustered  in)  suffered  more  in  sick 
ness  than  the  men  of  any  of  the  other  companies  in 
the  command.  They  had  perhaps  the  worst  tents  and 
were  a  great  deal  exposed.  At  the  end  of  a  week  or 
two,  two  of  the  men  were  quite  seriously  ill  with  lung 
troubles,  but  afterwards  recovered.  The  members  of 
the  company  rapidly  made  friends  among  the  people 
of  Portsmouth  and  were  frequently  entertained  in  that 
city.  A  number  of  the  citizens  of  Portsmouth,  soon 
after  the  arrival  of  the  company  at  Fort  Constitiition, 
loaded  up  a  wagon  with  supplies  of  good  things  eat 
able,  and  otherwise,  and  took  them  over  to  the  camp 
as  a  present  to  the  company.  This  gift  of  good  things 
was  often  repeated  during  the  stay  of  the  company 
at  this  place,  and  more  than  one  of  the  friends  made 
by  the  command  went  especially  to  Camp  Alger  to 
visit  them  at  a  later  date. 

Immediately  on  arrival  a  routine  of  drill  was  at 
once  established  at  the  camp  and  thoroughly  carried 
out.  Great  attention  was  paid  to  the  individual  in 
struction  of  the  recruits  and  all  other  members  of  the 
company  in  extended  order  drill  and  in  the  duties  of 
the  soldier.  Guards  were  established  and  maintained 
and  guard  duty  thoroughly  performed. 

The  credit  of  establishing  the  first  United  States 
army  post  on  Great  Gull  Island,  N.  Y.,  belongs  to 
Company  B,  First  Connecticut  Volunteer  Infantry. 
The  order  to  occupy  this  place  was  received  five  days 
after  the  muster  in  of  the  regiment  into  the  volunteer 
service.  The  inspection  of  the  land  and  of  the  water 
supply  by  Assistant-Surgeon  Griswold,  and  the  report 
thereon  had  resulted  in  special  arrangements  being 
made  for  a  proper  supply  of  water,  and  when  that  was 
completed  Company  B,  on  June  8,  1898,  was  trans 
ported  by  the  Steamer  Manhansett  from  Crescent 
Beach  to  Gull  Island,  being  about  three  hours  on  the 
water.  The  company  arrived  before  noon  and  the 
tents  were  promptly  pitched,  trenches  dug  and  blind 
drains  made  by  filling  the  trenches  with  cobble  stones, 
after  which  a  light  covering  of  loam  was  provided. 

There  was  but  one  spot  available  for  the  camp, 
and  that  was  about  one  hundred  and  seventy-five  feet 
long  by  forty  feet  wide  on  the  south  end  of  the  island, 
and  but  little  above  the  high  tide  level.  The  remainder 
of  the  island  was  excavated  as  to  its  entire  length  for 
the  fortifications  which  were  being  built  there.  There 
was  no  room  for  any  extended  order  drill,  but  what 
there  was,  was  utilized  in  company  and  squad  drill. 

As  soon  as  the  camp  was  pitched  details  were  at 
work  building  and  putting  in  tent  floors,  and  this  part 
of  the  work  was  soon  finished. 

On  the  island,  and  employed  on  the  fortifications, 
were  about  two  hundred  and  fifty  men  composed  of 
Italians,  Swedes,  negroes  and  a  small  number  of  Irish 
men  and  Americans;  in  fact,  a  very  conglomerate  class 
of  laborers.  The  guard  lines  were  established  and 


rigid  orders  issued  that  no  one  should  be  allowed  to 
pass  the  lines  within  the  limits  of  the  camp  unless 
accompanied  by  an  officer.  These  orders  were  carried 
out  to  the  letter,  and  no  one  but  the  contractor  or 
foreman  employed  on  the  fortifications  passed  the 
guard  line.  The  workmen  and  others  on  the  island 
would  gather  along  the  guard  line  and  watch  the 
troops  at  drill,  at  guard  mount,  inspection,  and  even 
at  play,  with  great  curiosity,  but  at  no  time  was  there 
any  difficulty  whatever  between  the  troops  and  any  of 
the  inhabitants  of  the  island.  This  speaks  well  for 
the  discipline  of  the  command. 

The  most  serious  breach  of  discipline  was  the  es 
capade  of  a  number  of  the  men  who  took  French  leave 
one  night  on  a  sailboat  and  made  a  trip  to  Xew 
London.  All  except  one  or  two  of  these  men  returned 
to  camp  within  ten  days,  so  as  to  avoid  any  chance  of 
charge  of  technical  desertion.  They  were  all  punished 
for  the  offense. 

The  rather  hard  conditions  of  life  at  the  island. 
the  limited  room,  and  the  rough  surface  available  for 
drill  Avere  thought  to  be  something  of  a  hardship  by 
the  men  of  the  command,  but  after  the  experience  at 
Camp  Alger  they  were  heard  to  express  longings  for 
a  return  to  Gull  Island. 

The  camp  at  Plum  Island,  under  command  of 
Lieutenant-Colonel  Hammond,  was  an  ideal  spot  for 
an  encampment.  Promptly  on  the  arrival  of  the 
troops  on  May  27,  18983  the  government  teams  then 
employed  at  the  work  of  building  fortifications  on  the 
island,  were  impressed  into  the  service  and  the  camp 
equipage  was  hauled  about  a  mile  from  the  landing 
and  camp  was  pitched  at  a  spot  about  a  hundred  and 
fifty  feet  from  a  fine  bathing  beach,  and  on  high 
ground  sloping  toward  the  beach.  Tents  were  pitched, 
drains  provided,  and,  as  at  Gull  Island,  the  sinks  were 
so  located  that  all  refuse  matter  was  disposed  of  by 
the  action  of  the  tide. 

A  regular  camp  routine  was  taken  up  promptly, 
company  drills  only,  however,  being  had.  In  the  ex 
tended  order  drill  by  bugle  commands,  Companies  E 
and  I  gained  great  proficiency,  as  well  as  in  guard 
duty.  Nothing  of  importance  occurred  until  the  latter 
part  of  June,  Avhen  twenty-five  men  were  added  to 
each  of  the  companies  and  the  work  increased  in  break 
ing  in  and  instructing  the  recruits. 

The  officers  in  charge  of  the  post  were  Lieutenant- 
Colonel  A.  G.  Hammond,  Post  Commandant ;  Lieu 
tenant  Samuel  E.  Mason,  Co.  I,  Adjutant  and  Quar 
termaster  ;  Lieutenant  R.  S.  Griswold,  Surgeon ;  Ser 
geant  B.  C.  Morey,  Co.  E,  Sergeant  Major. 

On  June  24th  Lieutenant  Magson  was  relieved  as 
Post  Adjutant  at  his  own  request  and  Lieutenant  G. 
Arthur  Iladsell,  Co.  E,  was  appointed  to  fill  his  place. 

The  need  of  a  storehouse  at  this  point  was  soon 
apparent,  and  lumber  being  sent  to  the  island  on  a 
sailboat,  one  was  soon  completed  by  details  from  the 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


35 


companies.  Plans  were  drawn,  cellar  dug,  foundation 
walls  laid,  and  the  building  constructed  entirely  by 
the  enlisted  men  of  the  post.  An  old  well  was  found 
within  a  hundred  yards  of  the  camp,  however,  filled 
with  rubbish  and  probably  unused  for  years.  This 
was  cleaned  out  thoroughly,  samples  of  the  water  ana 
lyzed  and  found  to  be  all  right.  A  requisition  was 
made  for  a  chain  pump,  and  on  its  arrival  it  was  put 
in  place  and  adjusted  by  a  man  from  Company  I  who 
worked  at  that  business  when  at  home. 

From  that  time  to  the  time  of  leaving  of  the  com 
mand  they  had  an  abundance  of  pure  water  from  this 
well,  all  pollution  of  the  well  being  avoided  by  the 
system  of  drainage  and  the  location  of  the  sinks,  in 
such  manner  as  to  prevent  any  bad  effects. 

About  July  1st  a  canteen  was  started  with  Lieu 
tenant  Mycroft,  of  Company  E,  as  Canteen  Officer, 
and  it  proved  a  great  success,  the  profits  all  going  to 
the  company  funds  and  being  used  to  vary  and  in 
crease  the  ration  for  the  companies. 

General  Orders  No.  61,  Headquarters  of  the  Army, 
dated  June  1,  1898,  received  at  Fort  Knox  on  June 

7,  1898,  provided  for  the  expansion  of  the  organiza 
tions    composing   the   regiment    and    already    accepted 
and  mustered  into   the   service   under   the  President's 
proclamation  of  April  23,  1898,  by  recruiting  the  com 
panies  to  the  maximum  enlisted  strength.     It  was  also 
provided  for  the  organization  of  additional  companies 
necessary  for  the  completion  of  the  regiment  to  twelve 
companies.     Recruiting  parties,  consisting  of  one  offi 
cer  and  four  enlisted  men,  were  ordered. 

At  this  time  there  were  ten  companies  in  the  First 
C.  V.  I.,  with  a  maximum  membership  of  eighty-four 
officers  and  men  per  company.  Under  the  new  orders, 
the  maximum  membership  was  raised  to  one  hundred 
and  nine  officers  and  men  per  company. 

Orders  JNTo.  11,  Headquarters,  C.  Y.  L,  dated  June 

8,  1898,  designated  Captain  William  E.  Mahoney  and 
Lieutenant  G.  W.  Ripley  as  the  officers  to  proceed  to 
Hartford    and    open    a    recruiting   station.      The    two 
additional  companies  were  to  be  raised  by  increasing 
the   membership    of    Company    G,    Fourth    Regiment, 
under  command  of  Captain  V.  M.  King,  of  Danbury, 
and  raising  a  new  company  in   Meriden  under  com 
mand  of  Captain   Charles  B.   Bowen.      The  Avork   of 
recruiting  was  soon  begun   and  recruits  were  sent   to 
the   various    posts,    filling    the    ten    companies    to    the 
maximum  by  June  21st. 

Captain  Mahoney,  as  recruiting  officer,  asked  in 
structions  by  telegram  as  to  the  muster  in  of  Company 
L,  of  Meriden,  and  Company  M,  of  Danbury,  through 
General  Frank,  commanding  Department  of  the  East. 
The  answer  received  from  Adjutant-General  Corbin 
was  that  no  instructions  had  been  given  to  the  Gov 
ernor  of  Connecticut  authorizing  tho  organization  of 
two  additional  companies.  An  urgent  telegraphic  re 
quest  on  June  27th  to  the  War  Department  at  Wash 


ington  for  permission  to  add  the  companies  was  met 
with  the  following  answer: 

"  WASHINGTON,  D.  C.,  JUNE  28,  1898. 
Colonel  Charles  L.  Burdett,  Bud-sport: 

Message  June  27th  received.  Replying 
thereto  the  Secretary  of  War  bids  me  say  he 
has  nothing  to  add  beyond  Avhat  was  stated 
in  message  to  you  of  June  26,  1898.  The 
excess  granted  to  the  State  of  Connecticut 
under  the  President's  second  call  is  already 
eight  hundred  and  twenty-one. 

H.  C.  CORBIN, 

Assistant  Adjutant-General." 

General  Haven,  Adjutant  General  of  Connecticut, 
reported  that  he  had  received  full  authority  from  the 
War  Department  to  raise  these  two  companies,  and  on 
June  28th  the  Secretary  of  War  authorized  the  accept 
ance  and  muster  in  of  the  two  companies.  Lieutenant 
Hamilton  Rowan,  U.  S.  A.,  who  had  mustered  in  the 
regiment,  was  detailed  as  mustering  officer  and  pro 
ceeded  to  Meriden,  and  afterwards  to  Danbury,  and 
mustered  in  these  organizations. 

Company  L  reported  at  Fort  Knox  on  Sunday 
afternoon,  July  10,  1898,  without  arms,  uniforms  or 
equipments. 

From  the  time  that  the  order  assigning  the  regi 
ment  to  coast  reserve  duty  and  spreading  it  along  the 
coast  of  JSTeAv  England  was  issued,  persistent  efforts 
had  been  made  by  the  Colonel  Commanding  to  secure 
the  mobilization  of  the  command  and  its  assignment 
to  active  duty.  Officers  and  men  had  enlisted  for  the 
purpose  of  performing  active  duty  and  were  most 
eager  to  go  to  the  front.  General  Hawley,  Congress 
man  Henry  and  other  prominent  men,  had  been  urged 
to  use  their  best  endeavors  to  have  the  State  of  Con 
necticut  recognized  in  a  fitting  manner.  About  the 
middle  of  June  General  HaAvley  had  secured  from  the 
Secretary  of  War  and  Adjutant  General  of  the  Army, 
a  promise  that  this  request  Avould  be  soon  granted  and 
the  regiment  given  active  service.  At  Niantic,  com 
mands  from  other  states  had  passed  through  Connecti 
cut  going  to  the  larger  camps  and  toward  the  front, 
Avith  the  larger  number  of  men  of  the  commands  with 
out  arms,  uniforms  or  equipment.  In  Maine  they 
saw  regiments  without  arms,  uniforms  or  equipment, 
pass  them  to  go  to  the  front.  July  came,  and  so  far 
as  Connecticut  had  any  place  in  any  brigade,  division 
or  army  corps,  it  looked  as  if  the  history  of  the  Avar 
Avould  find  the  state  unrecognized  in  either. 

Early  in  July  the  Colonel  commanding  obtained  • 
leave  of  absence  for  the  purpose  of  going  to  Washing 
ton  to  try  to  get  the  regiment  to  the  front,  at  the  same 
time  making  a  strenuous  effort  to  obtain  the  desired 
result  through  the  influence  of  General  Hawley.  In 
answer  to  a  letter  to  General  Hawley  a  reply  was  re 
ceived  from  the  General  by  telegraph,  asking  what 
Avas  wanted.  The  following  ansAver  \vas  sent :

"  BUCKSPORT,  JULY  9,  1898. 

General  Joseph  R.  Hawley, 
Washington,  D.  C. 

Astonished.  Have  repeatedly  asked  to  be 
relieved  from  reserve  duty  and  assigned  to 
active  duty  in  the  field.  I  want  this  com 
mand  mobilized,  outfitted  and  sent  to  Porto 
Rico  or  elsewhere  for  field  service.  Having 
been  waiting  since  June  20th  the  carrying 
out  of  your  promise  to  this  effect. 

BFRDETT,  Colonel." 

In  answer  to  this  telegram  the  following  answer 
was  received  by  telegram  from  General  Hawley  on 
Sunday  evening,  July  10,  1898,  and  immediately  com 
municated  to  the  command  at  the  camp  at  Fort  Knox : 

"  WASHINGTON,  D.  C.,  JULY  9,  1898. 

To  Colonel  Charles  L.  Burdctt, 

First   Connecticut    Volunteer  Infantry, 

Fort  Knox,  Me. : 

You  totally  misunderstood  my  telegram. 
Wanted  to  know  the  status  of  the  muster  in, 
the  character  of  supplies,  whether  clothing, 
canteens,  muskets  or  ammunition  lacking.  I 
did  not  wish  to  know  that  you  desired  to  go 
to  the  front.  I  knew  that  already.  I  did  not 
care  to  be  informed  that  you  wanted  your 
command  mobilized  and  ordered  out  for  field 
service  and  sent  to  Porto  Rico  or  elsewhere. 
You  say  "  have  been  waiting  since  June  1st 
the  carrying  out  of  your  promise "  to  this 
effect.  You  surprise  me.  I  call  your  atten 
tion  to  the  fact  that  I  am  neither  President 
nor  Secretary  of  War.  I  told  you  just  what 
the  War  Department  told  me.  I  quote  the 
following  from  the  President's  own  hand 
writing  just  given  me.  '  General  Alger.  I 
think  if  you  can  supply  their  place  the  First 
Connecticut  should  be  ordered  here  or  Keif- 
fer's  division.  This  is  what  General  Hawley 
wants  and  I  want.  W.  McK.' 


JULY  9,  1898. 


JOS.  R.  HAWLEY.' 


In  less  than  five  minutes  after  the  delivery  of  this 
message,  the  men  broke  out  with  loud  cheering,  yells, 
routed  out  the  band  and  paraded  en  masse  about  the 
camp.  The  temporary  buildings  of  brush  and  sap 
lings  that  had  been  built  were  set  on  fire,  and  water 
had  to  be  thrown  on  the  tents  about  the  edge  of  the 
camp  to  keep  them  from  catching  fire.  For  a  short 
time  pandemonium  reigned,  with,  however,  no  breach 
of  discipline.  The  news  was  received  throughout  the 
regiment  with  the  same  satisfaction,  and  the  following 
order  was  promptly  complied  with : 

"HEADQUARTERS  DEPARTMENT  OF

5.  Pursuant  to  telegraphic  orders  from 
the  War  Department,  of  the  9th  instant,  the

of  the  department,  previous  to  the  departure 
of  the  responsible  officers. 

The  Quartermaster's  Department  will  fur 
nish  the  transportation;  the  Subsistence  De 
partment  will  arrange  for  the  necessary  sub

public  service. 

By  command  of  Brigadier-General  Gil- 
lespie : 

GEORGE  ANDREWS, 

Assistant  Adjutant-General. 

Official:  HERMAN  C.  SCHUMM, 

1st  Lieutenant  2d  Artillery. 
Aide-de-Camp." 

It  came  out  afterwards  that  in  the  commands  at 
Portland,  where  they  were  supposed  to  be  having  such 
a  picnic,  a  petition  had  been  circulated  among  the 
men  and  signed  by  the  greater  number,  asking  that  an 
effort  be  made  to  have  the  regiment  see  active  service. 
Nothing  of  this,  however,  was  known  at  the  time,  ex 
cept,  of  course,  among  the  signers. 

In  behalf  of  the  regiment,  it  must  be  said  they 
fully  understood  that  in  doing  the  work  to  which  they 
had  been  assigned,  they  were  fully  performing  their 
duties  as  soldiers.  They  had  obeyed  orders,  and  that 
promptly,  and  all  of  the  time  consumed  in  waiting, 
had  been  utilized  in  the  best  manner  in  learning  and 
practicing  the  duties  Avhich  to  a  great  extent  were 
new  to  all  of  them. 

The  mere  matter  of  drill  is  a  small  part  of  the 
work  which  must  be  done  by  a  field  or  line  officer  in 
service. 

By  Saturday,  July  16,  1898,  the  last  company  ar 
rived  at  Niantic,  and  the  whole  command  was  for  the 
first  time  assembled.  That  part  of  the  command  which 
was  at  Fort  Knox  left  there  at  4 :50  o'clock  A.  M. 
July  14th,  and  arrived  at  Niantic  about  9  o'clock  that 
evening.  The  greater  part  of  the  needed  equipment 
and  supplies  was  provided  there  from  the  government 
or  from  the  state,  the  latter  taking  receipts  from  the 
regimental  quartermaster.  On  Monday,  July  18th, 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY

the  regiment  left  camp  for  Camp  Alger,  arriving  at 
Dunn  Loring  station,  about  one  mile  from  camp,  on 
Tuesday  noon. 

The  following  extract  from  the  NEW  YORK  SUN 
of  July  19,  1898,  shows  what  the  SUN  reporter  thought 
of  the  command  which  he  inspected  as  they  filed  past 
him  onto  the  ferry  boat  at  Harlem  River: 

"  The  First  Connecticut  Volunteers,  as  fine 
a  regiment  of  men  as  has  been  seen  in  New 
York  since  the  war  began,  came  down  from 
Niantic  last  night  on  the  New  York,  New 
Haven  &  Hartford  Railroad  on  the  way  to 
Camp  Alger,  Falls  Church,  Va.,  where  the 
regiment,  will  join  Butler's  brigade. 

The  48  officers  and  1,279  men  arrived  at 
the  Harlem  River  Station  at  8  o'clock  on  a 
four-section  train.  A  Central  New  Jersey 
ferry  boat  was  waiting  for  them  there  to  take 
them  to  the  railroad  station  in  Jersey  City. 
The  regimental  band  played  '  The  Star 
Spangled  Banner,'  '  Dixie,'  and  '  The  Stars 
and  Stripes  Forever/  while  the  men  were  em 
barking  and  the  thousand  or  more  New 
Yorkers  who  had  turned  out  to  give  the  Con 
necticut  boys  a  welcome  swarmed  on  the 
nearby  bridge  across  the  Harlem  and  cheered 
themselves  hoarse.  The  Yankees  did  some 
cheering,  too.  They  were  bubbling  over  with 
enthusiasm  because  they  were  at  last  bound 
for  the  South. 

Colonel  Charles  L.  Burdett  was  as  happy 
as  anybody  in  the  regiment.  His  headquarters 
for  the  past  few  weeks  have  been  away  up 
in  Maine,  at  old  Fort  Knox,  on  the  Penob- 
scot,  eighteen  miles  below  Bangor.  Four 
companies  were  stationed  there,  garrisoning 
a  fort  of  old  smooth-bore  guns.  Two  com 
panies  \vere  at  Fort  Preble,  Portland,  one  at 
Fort  Constitution,  Portsmouth,  two  at  Plum 
Island  and  one  at  Gull  Island. 

'  Our  right  was  at  Gull  Island,'  said  the 
Colonel  last  night,  '  and  our  left  was  up  in 
the  Maine  woods,  in  the  suburbs  of  Bucks- 
port.  I  tell  you  Ave  are  mighty  glad  to  get 
somewhere  near  the  front,  and  if  we  don't 
see  some  fighting  before  long  we'll  be  as  dis 
appointed  a  lot  of  men  as  can  be  found  in 
the  country.  We  were  mustered  in  on  May 
18,  the  first  Connecticut  volunteers  to  enter 
the  service,  and  I  tell  you  I've  kept  the  wires 
warm  ever  since  asking  for  marching  orders. 
Did  you  ever  see  a  finer  body  of  men?  You 
ought  to  have  seen  them  on  the  parade 
ground.  And  if  we  ever  do  get  to  the  front, 
just  watch  the  battle  reports  for  the  doings 
of  the  First  Connecticut.' 

The  Connecticut  boys  left  Jersey  City  at 
11 :30  o'clock.  One  train  carried  baggage  and 
horses.      Three    trains    carried    the    troops  — 
and  the  mascots,  a  bull  pup  and  a  goat. 

Senator  Hawley  arrived  at  Niantic  a  few 
hours  before  the  regiment  left.  He  was  en 
thusiastically  received.  He  made  a  speech 
giving  the  men  words  of  encouragement.  The 
Third  Connecticut  escorted  the  First  to  the 
Niantic  station." 


The  train  was  made  up  of  three  sections,  the  first 
arriving  in  Washington  at  nine  o'clock  and  the  others 
following  at  twenty  minute  intervals.  The  regiment 
marched  from  the  B.  &  O.  depot,  near  the  Capitol, 
across  the  city  to  a  station  of  the  Southern  Railroad 
on  Maryland  Ave.  and  12th  Street.  The  regiment 
had  over  1,362  officers  and  men  at  this  time  on  duty, 
without  a  sick  man  in  the  hospital,  and  the  prompt 
ness  with  which  the  transfer  was  made  and  the  regi 
ment  embarked  and  disembarked,  was  greatly  to  the 
credit  of  Quartermaster  Bronson  and  to  the  command. 
Superintendent  Ryder,  of  the  Southern  Railroad,  said 
it  was  the  only  regiment  of  the  thirty  thousand  troops 
that  had  been  handled  by  the  Southern  Railroad,  that 
had  succeeded  in  getting  across  Washington  and  out 
to  Camp  Alger  in  less  than  a  day,  and  he  was  greatly 
astonished  at  the  system  with  which  everything  was 
done. 

The  regiment  had  marched  through  Washington 
in  heavy  marching  order,  and  in  hot  weather,  which 
was  extremely  trying  to  men  accustomed  to  the  cool 
breezes  of  the  New  England  coast.  They  disembarked 
from  the  train  at  Dunn  Loring  and  formed  on  roads 
that  were  heavy  with  dust  and  under  the  heat  of  a 
sun  that  was  almost  tropical  in  the  intensity  of  its 
heat.  The  command  had  been  assigned  to  the  First 
Division,  Second  Army  Corps,  which  was  under  com 
mand  of  Major-General  M.  C.  Butler,  and  Major 
Wright,  Division  Quartermaster,  and  Captain  Brooks, 
Division  Commissary,  were  at  the  station  when  the 
command  arrived.  As  soon  as  the  horses  were  de 
trained,  Colonel  commanding  and  Captain  Brooks,  at 
the  request  of  the  former,  rode  over  to  the  camping 
ground  assigned  to  the  regiment,  which  was  about  a 
mile  from  the  station,  leaving  the  regiment  to  proceed 
under  command  of  Lieutenant-Colonel  Hammond,  as 
soon  as  the  three  battalions  had  arrived. 

The  camp  ground  was  found  to  be  an  old  corn  field 
overgrown  with  rag  weed,  and  located  on  the  main 
road  from  Falls  Church  to  Fairfax  Court  House,  a 
short  distance  from  the  Merrifield  pike.  This  was 
said  by  some  old  settlers  to  be  the  very  ground  on 
which  the  first  Connecticut  regiment  had  encamped 
in  the  war  of  the  Rebellion.  Be  that  as  it  may,  the 
whole  section  near  Falls  Church,  which  is  about  three 
miles  east  from  Dunn  Loring  station,  was  a  most 
familiar  section  to  many  of  the  Connecticut  men  dur 
ing  that  war,  whether  the  precise  locality  had  been 
occupied  by  any  Connecticut  regiment  before  or  not. 

It  was  found  that  the  Division  Engineer  had  not 
yet  established  the  lines  or  laid  out  the  camp,  and 
after  a  careful  survey  of  the  ground  the  Colonel  rode 
back  along  the  road  to  see  what  had  become  of  the 
regiment,  which  by  that  time  should  have  arrived. 
They  were  found  about  a  half  mile  back  resting  in  a 
large  field,  next  to  the  camp  of  the  Eighth  Pennsyl 
vania,  it  appearing  that  the  other  staff  officer,  Major 


38 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


Wright,  had  been  unable  to  guide  them  any  further. 
A  large  number  of  the  men  had  fallen  out  owing  to 
the  heat,  but  the  regiment  was  called  to  attention,  and 
in  the  pouring  rain  continued  its  march  to  the  camp 
ground.  An  effort  was  made  to  get  some  shelter  along 
a  line  of  bushes  at  one  side  of  the  ground,  but  the 
only  thing  to  do  appeared  to  be  to  take  things  as  they 
came,  and  in  fact  the  cold  rain  proved  to  be  a  great 
benefit  in  cooling  the  air  and  in  reviving  the  men,  who 
were  exhausted  by  the  heat.  The  Division  Engineer, 
Major  Pierce,  was  soon  on  the  ground,  and  assisted 
by  details  from  the  companies  of  the  regiment,  pro 
ceeded  to  lay  out  the  camp.  The  Colonel,  Lieutenant- 
Colonel,  and  Adjutant,  at  once  rode  over  to  the  main 
camp  at  Falls  Church,  about  two  miles  and  a  half  to 
the  east,  to  report  to  the  Corps  Commander,  General 
Graham,  and  also  to  the  Division  Headquarters  to 
General  Butler.  On  their  return  to  the  new  camp  it 
was  found  that  nearly  all  the  tents  had  been  pitched, 
the  kitchens  established,  and  the  men  rapidly  settling 
down.  The  storm  having  cleared  away,  after  about 
two  hours  of  heavy  rain,  the  spirits  of  the  men  quickly 
revived. 

No  attempt  was  made  at  a  tactical  arrangement 
of  tents,  but  the  headquarter  tents  were  established 
where  the  best  results  could  be  secured  and  the  best 
uses  made  of  the  ground.  The  color  line  extended 
very  nearly  east  and  west,  the  tent  of  the  Lieutenant- 
Colonel,  Senior  and  Junior  Majors  being  established 
opposite  the  center  of  the  respective  commands  or 
battalions,  the  first  being  on  the  right.  Two  large 
hospital  tents  with  the  dispensary  were  located  near 
the  east  end  of  the  line,  opposite  the  third  battalion. 
The  headquarter  tent  was  pitched  on  the  south  side 
of  the  ground  nearly  opposite  the  center,  leaving  a 
broad  parade  between  it  and  the  camp.  The  Colonel 
and  the  Staff  were  located  near  the  southeast  quarter 
of  the  ground,  and  the  stables  established  in  the  south 
west  corner.  The  ground  was  rolling  from  the  east 
and  south,  toward  the  west  and  north,  the  camp  lying 
along  a  sort  of  spur  or  ridge  that  provided  for  drain 
age  both  ways  from  the  center  of  the  camp  in  each 
street.  Within  twenty-four  hours  everything  was  in 
running  order,  and  the  daily  routine  had  been  taken 
up.  It  was  expected  that  the  regiment  would  proceed 
within  a  few  days  to  Newport  News,  en  route  for 
Porto  Rico  with  the  first  expedition  to  that  point,  but 
through  some  influence  this  was  prevented,  and  they 
saw  Squadron  A  leave  camp  on  the  23d  of  July  on 
its  way  to  Porto  Rico,  while  the  regiment  remained 
at  Alger  for  about  ten  days  before  any  disposition  was 
made  as  to  its  assignment. 

Camp  Alger,  Va.,  was  located  about  sixteen  miles 
southwest  of  Washington,  on  the  line  of  the  Southern 
Railroad  and  in  the  village  of  Falls  Church.  The 
soil  is  the  well-known  Virginia  clay  that,  after  a  rain 
storm  produces  roads  almost  impassable,  and  in  dry 


weather,  furnishes  clouds  of  dust.  There  was  no  natural 
water  supply  at  the  place,  or  in  the  vicinity,  nor  were 
there  any  facilities  for  bathing.  This  was  the  camp 
of  the  Second  Army  Corps,  under  the  command  of 
Major-General  W.  M.  Graham,  TJ.  S.  A.,  and  the 
corps  numbered  25,000  men. 

At  the  time  the  First  C.  V.  I.  was  ordered  to  this 
camp  a  large  part  had  been  condemned  as  unfit  for 
use  on  account  of  its  unsanitary  condition  and  the 
lack  of  the  needed  water  supply.  Typhoid  fever,  which 
is  endemic  in  this  village  of  Falls  Church,  had  broken 
out  and  prevailed  to  an  alarming  extent  among  the 
troops.  It  had  been  found  necessary  to  move  to  new 
grounds  on  the  old  Chittenden  farm  near  the  Dunn 
Loring  station,  this  having  been  chosen  for  the  new 
camp.  The  Eighth  Pennsylvania  had  been  moved  to 
this  new  ground,  and  the  First  Connecticut  was  the 
second  organization  to  camp  on  the  farm. 

There  was  no  river  or  large  stream  near  the  camp 
of  the  First,  and  a  driven  well  about  two  hundred 
yards  from  the  north  line  and  on  a  road  running  along 
the  eastern  boundary  of  the  camp  was  the  sole  source 
of  supply  for  the  regiment.  Within  a  few  days  after 
the  regiment  arrived,  another  driven  well  was  started 
near  the  western  end  of  the  camp  ground,  and  within 
the  limits  of  the  camp.  It  took  about  ten  days  to  get 
this  in  shape,  but  in  the  meantime  the  Third  Virginia 
had  been  moved  over  from  the  old  camp  and  was 
established  on  the  field  directly  north  of  the  First 
Connecticut.  The  single  pump  was  then  used  by  the 
some  2,600  men  of  these  two  commands. 

A  small  stream  of  water  that  ran  along  the  north 
side  of  the  camp,  between  the  ground  occupied  by  the 
First  Connecticut  and  the  Third  Virginia,  and  along 
the  west  side  of  the  ground  through  some  thick  bushes, 
supplied  the  only  water  available  for  bathing,  and 
only  a  few  could  use  this  at  one  time.  It  was  not  long 
before  the  men  discovered  that  the  most  efficient  way 
to  take  a  bath  was  to  wait  for  a  heavy  rain  storm, 
and  then  turn  out  with  not  enough  clothing  on  to  in 
terfere  with  the  ceremony.  This  usually  occurred  in 
the  evening,  but  was  a  common  occurrence,  and  no 
attention  was  paid  to  it  by  the  commanding  officers, 
who  recognized  the  need  of  the  bath,  and  the  absolute 
lack  of  any  other  means  of  supplying  the  need. 

There  was  a  rumor  prevalent  that  in  the  early 
history  of  Camp  Alger  brigades  had  marched  over  to 
the  river,  about  seven  miles  away,  for  the  purpose  of 
bathing,  and  then  marched  back  again  to  Camp  Alger, 
arriving  at  the  camp  in  fit  condition  to  repeat  the 
bath  that  they  had  taken  at  the  other  end  of  the  route. 
No  such  custom  as  this  was  ever  observed  during  the 
time  that  the  First  Connecticut  was  at  the  camp. 

By  the  1st  of  August  the  Thirteenth  Pennsylvania, 
the  First  New  Jersey,  the  Seventh  Ohio  and  the  Sixty- 
Fifth  New  York,  making  up  the  whole  of  the  First 
Division,  and  the  Division  Headquarters,  had  moved 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


39 


over  to  the  new  camp.  The  First  Division  Hospital 
was  established  on  a  lot  just  east  of  that  occupied  by 
the  Third  Virginia,  and  but  a  short  distance  from  the 
ground  occupied  by  the  First  Connecticut,  and  at  a 
later  date  a  section  of  Signal  Corps,  attached  to  the 
Second  Army  Corps,  was  established  in  camp  near 
the  Division  Headquarters. 

Shortly  after  the  regiment  arrived  at  this  camp, 
a  practice  march  was  undertaken  under  command  of 
the  Lieutenant-Colonel,  but  when  they  were  about  four 
miles  from  camp  the  flanking  parties  and  advance 
guards  were  threatened  with  arrest  by  the  Provost 
Guard  of  the  Corps,  on  the  ground  that  they  were  off 
the  main  road.  The  flankers  and  advance  guard  were 
drawn  in  and  the  regiment  returned  to  camp  to  under 
take  no  more  practice  marches  or  other  manoeuvres  of 
the  kind  while  they  remained  in  camp. 

The  tents  occupied  by  the  men  were  what  are 
known  as  A  wall  tents,  about  eight  feet  square,  and  in 
each  of  these  tents  six  men  had  been  obliged  to  sleep, 
with  all  their  uniforms  and  equipments.  When  it  is 
noted  that  eight  feet  means  ninety-six  inches,  and 
that  a  sixth  of  that  means  sixteen  inches,  the  crowded 
condition  of  the  tent,  in  which  neither  one  of  the  men 
could  move  or  turn  over  without  disturbing  his  tent 
mate,  can  be  appreciated. 

The  need  of  more  tents  had  been  forcibly  called 
to  the  attention  of  the  War  Department,  and  requisi 
tions  had  been  put  in  repeatedly.  This  crowded  con 
dition  of  the  tents  could  be  borne  by  the  men  while 
they  were  in  a  cold  climate,  but  at  Camp  Alger,  where 
the  temperature  was  often  over  a  hundred  degrees  in 
the  shade  during  the  day,  and  not  much  lower  during 
the  night,  the  extreme  danger  to  health  from  this  con 
dition  could  not  but  be  apparent. 

As  a  matter  of  fact,  within  a  few  days  after  the 
First  arrived  at  camp,  a  large  number  of  the  men  pre 
ferred  to  sleep  in  the  furrows  of  the  open  field,  rather 
than  to  sleep  in  a  tent,  and  in  fact  the  latter  was 
practically  impossible  with  any  comfort.  So  long  as 
there  was  a  prospect  that  the  regiment  would  be  sent 
to  the  front,  no  complaints  were  made  by  the  men  and 
no  grumbling,  but  they  took  what  came  simply  as  a 
part  of  what  they  might  expect;  but  as  the  days  went 
by  and  the  typhoid  fever  which  prevailed  in  the  camp 
began  to  take  hold  of  the  men  of  the  regiment,  discon 
tent  appeared  in  some  quarters,  but  it  was  by  no 
means  general  throughout  the  companies. 

Quartermaster  Bronson  and  Commissary-Sergeant 
Prescott  were  untiring  in  their  efforts  to  administer 
the  affairs  of  their  departments  so  that  the  men  should 
have  every  comfort  possible,  and  their  efforts  were 
crowned  with  success. 

About  forty-seven  dollars  per  month  was  made  by 
each  company  during  this  whole  term  of  service,  and 
this  amount  went  into  the  company  fund  to  be  used  in 
extending  and  varying  the  army  ration.  The  regular 


army  ration  provides  for  the  issue  of  specified  quan 
tities  of  different  components,  meat,  potatoes,  bread, 
vinegar,  etc.,  and  if  a  company  does  not  use  up  its 
allowance  of  several  of  these  articles,  they  are  allowed 
the  value  in  money  of  the  part  not  consumed. 

Early  in  August  an  order  was  issued  from  Corps 
Headquarters,  brigading  the  First  Regiment,  and  in 
compliance  with  that  order  the  following  was  issued: 

"  BRIGADE  HEADQUARTERS, 

SECOND  BRIGADE,  THIRD  DIVISION, 

SECOND  ARMY  CORPS, 

CAMP  ALGER,  VA.,  AUGUST  2,  1898. 
GENERAL  ORDER  NO.  1. 

In  compliance  with  G.  0.  No.  59,  Head 
quarters  Second  Army  Corps,  Camp  Alger 
Virginia,  August  2d,  1898,  the  undersigned 
assumes  command  of  the  Second  Brigade, 
Third  Division,  Second  Army  Corps. 

CHARLES  L.  BURDETT, 
Colonel  First  Conn.  Volunteer  Infantry, 
Commanding  Brigade." 

The  Third  Virginia  and  the  Second  South  Caro 
lina  regiments  were  assigned  to  this  brigade,  but  the 
latter  had  not  yet  left  its  state,  so  that  the  brigade 
was  made  up  of  the  First  Connecticut  and  the  Third 
Virginia. 

As    soon    as    the    Third    Virginia    had    established 
itself  on  the  ground  next  to  the  First  Connecticut,  a 
concert  was  tendered  to  Colonel  Nolle  and  the  officers 
of   the   Third   Virginia   by   Colonel   Burdett,   and   the 
tender  being  accepted,  the  band  of  the  First  reported 
early  in  the  evening  at   the  headquarters  of  Colonel 
Nolle.     The  band  had  been  practicing  on  well-known 
southern   airs,   and  very  early  in   the  concert  played 
"Dixie"  in  a  manner  that  caused  the  Virginians  to 
raise  the  whole  camp  with  the  peculiar  southern  yell. 
The  two  regiments  soon  established  friendly  relations, 
and  it  got  to  be  a  regular  custom  for  the  First  Regi 
ment  Band,   after  its  evening  concert   in   one   or  the 
other  of  the  company   streets,   to  march   down   along 
the   regimental   line   playing   "Dixie,"    an    occurrence 
which   was   always    received   by   the   Virginians   with 
loud  yells  of  approval.     On  August  2,  1898,  the  fol 
lowing  order  was  issued  from  the  War  Department, 
and  the  men  again  rejoiced  in  a  renewed  prospect  of 
service  at  the  front: 

"  WAR  DEPARTMENT, 

ADJUTANT-GENERAL'S   OFFICE, 

GENERAL  ORDERS  NO.  111. 

WASHINGTON,  D.  C.,  AUGUST  2,  1898. 

The  commanding  officers  of  the  following 
regiments,  U.  S.  Volunteer  Infantry,  will  re 
port  to  Major-General  J.  F.  Wade,  U.  S. 
Volunteers,  War  Department,  Washington, 
District  of  Columbia,  by  telegraph,  for  in 
structions  and  orders:

FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


First  Rhode  Island,  First  North  Carolina, 
First  New  Hampshire,  First  New  Jersey, 
Second  Texas,  First  Maine,  Fourth  Missouri, 
First  Alabama,  First  Vermont,  First  West 
Virginia,  First  Connecticut,  Third  Tennes 
see,  Twenty-Second  New  York,  First  Arkan 
sas,  Fifty-Second  Iowa,  Third  Virginia,  First 
Delaware,  and  First  Maryland. 

These  regiments  will  be  organized  into 
brigades,  as  follows: 

First  Brigade  —  First  Rhode  Island, 
Fourth  Missouri,  TAventy-Second  New  York. 

Second  Brigade  —  First  North  Carolina, 
First  Alabama,  First  Arkansas. 

Third  Brigade  —  First  New  Hampshire, 
First  Vermont,  Fifty-Second  Iowa. 

Fourth  Brigade  —  First  New  Jersey,  First

Fifth  Brigade  —  Second  Texas,  First  Con 
necticut,  First  Delaware. 

Sixth  Brigade  —  First  Maine,  Third  Ten 
nessee,  First  Maryland. 

Major-General  Wade,  U.  S.  Volunteers,  is, 
by  direction  of  the  Secretary  of  War,  as 
signed  to  command  of  these  brigades,  and  will 
conduct  them  to  Porto  Rico.  On  his  arrival 
there  he  will  report  to  Major-General  John 
R.  Brooke,  U.  S.  Army,  for  duty  with  the 
forces  under  the  immediate  direction  of  the 
Major-General  commanding  the  army. 

The  commanding  generals  of  the  several 
Army  Corps  in  which  these  regiments  are 
now  serving,  are  enjoined  to  give  General 
Wade  every  possible  assistance  in  the  move 
ments  herein  ordered. 

These  regiments  are  detached  from  the 
corps  with  which  they  are  now  serving  for 
this  campaign  only,  and  at  the  termination 
of  which  they  will  be  returned  to  their  respec 
tive  corps.  They  will  be  accounted  for  on 
all  returns  as  on  detached  service. 

On  completion  of  this  service,  General 
Wade  will  resume  command  of  the  Third 
Army  Corps. 

By  order  of  the*  Secretary  of  War, 
H.  C.  CORBIN, 

Adjutant-General." 

A  renewed  interest  was  shown  in  the  drills  and 
the  men  began  to  get  rid  of  all  surplus  parts  of  uni 
form  and  equipment,  so  as  to  be  ready  to  move  in  the 
lightest  possible  marching  order.  August  12th,  how 
ever,  came  without  any  order  having  been  received  for 
the  regiment  to  proceed  to  any  seaboard  for  transpor 
tation,  and  on  that  day  the  Protocol  was  signed  which 
practically  ended  the  war. 

The  effect  upon  the  troops  was  most  disheartening. 
Several  of  the  men  had  come  down  with  what  was 
termed  by  the  surgeon,  typhoid  malaria,  owing  to  the 
peculiar  nature  of  the  temperature  curves  and  other 
symptoms  shown  by  the  patient.  This  soon  proved 
to  be  the  camp  fever,  or  typhoid  fever,  as  it  was  called, 
and  the  men  were  moved  from  the  Regimental  Hospi 
tal  to  a  special  ward  in  the  First  Division  Hospital, 


where  they  could  receive  extra  and  continuous  care. 
This  removal  of  the  typhoid  patients  was  caused  by 
the  greatly  increased  number  of  cases,  requiring  treat 
ment  in  the  regimental  hospital,  which  soon  became 
overcrowded.  As  soon  as  it  became  evident  that  the 
cases  of  a  serious  nature  were  rapidly  increasing  in 
number,  arrangements  were  made  for  sending  the  sick 
men  to  the  Hartford  Hospital.  In  a  very  short  time 
there  were  a  dozen  or  more  of  these  serious  cases,  not 
yet  so  far  advanced  as  to  make  the  journey  a  fatal  one, 
and  they  were  sent  in  parlor  cars  from  Dunn  Loring 
through  to  Hartford.  In  one  or  two  instances  the 
cases  were  so  serious  that  the  patients  were  removed 
from  the  cars  and  left  in  New  Haven. 

From  this  time  on,  the  men  being  fully  convinced 
that  the  war  was  over,  and  that  they  would  have  no 
opportunity  to  see  active  service,  and  in  view  of  the 
authorized  publications  in  the  papers  that  one  hundred 
thousand  of  the  volunteers  would  be  discharged,  and 
that  the  wishes  of  the  men  in  this  regard  would  be 
considered  by  the  War  Department  in  selecting  the 
regiments,  nearly  all  of  the  regiments  in  the  vicinity 
of  the  First  Connecticut  evinced  a  wish  to  be  mustered 
out.  Camp  rumors  spread  like  wild  fire,  but  it  was 
soon  learned  as  a  matter  of  fact,  that,  through  the 
efforts  of  the  Governor  of  New  York,  the  Sixty-Fifth 
New  York  was  to  be  mustered  out,  and  then  the  First 
New  Jersey;  after  that  the  Seventh  Ohio,  and  the 
feeling  soon  spread  through  the  First  Connecticut  that 
if  the  government  had  no  further  need  of  their  services 
for  active  work,  and  if  they  could  have  the  privilege 
of  deciding  the  question,  they  would  like  to  be 
mustered  out. 

In  the  latter  part  of  August  the  First  Connecticut 
Volunteer  Infantry  was  designated  as  one  of  the  regi 
ments  to  be  mustered  out  from  the  United  States  ser 
vice,  and  about  two  weeks  would  be  taken  in  the  prepa 
ration  of  books,  papers,  and  descriptive  lists  under  an 
extremely  elaborate  order.  A  physical  examination 
of  each  man  was  included  in  the  program,  so  as  to 
reduce  as  largely  as  possible  any  future  pension  list. 

By  the  last  of  August  nearly  all  the  regiments  had 
left  the  camp  ground,  and  the  sickness  in  the  First 
increased  to  such  an  extent  that  authority  to  have  it 
sent  to  Niantic,  Conn.,  there  to  prepare  for  the  muster 
out  was  obtained.  A  thirty  days'  furlough  was 
ordered,  the  plan  being,  that  as  soon  as  the  papers 
were  completed,  the  men  would  be  given  the  furlough, 
and  then  return  to  camp  for  the  final  muster  out.  It 
was  thought  desirable  to  send  the  regiment  to  Niantic 
to  change  the  climate,  and  the  reports  of  the  State 
Board  of  Health  as  to  the  excellent  sanitary  condition 
of  the  camp  ground,  apparently  rendered  the  move 
ment  safe. 

On  September  7th  the  First  C.  V.  I.  left  Camp 
Alger  for  Camp  Haven,  Connecticut,  in  three  sections, 


FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  INFANTRY 


41 


the  baggage  train  leaving  early  in  the  morning,  and 
each  battalion  following  in  its  proper  order.  The  trip 
was  made  on  time  and  without  accident,  the  first  bat 
talion  arriving  in  Niantic  about  9  A.  M.,  on  Septem 
ber  8th,  and  going  into  camp  on  the  south  side  of  the 
ground  near  the  gate.  The  second  battalion  arrived 
within  an  hour,  and  went  into  camp  on  the  south  side 
of  the  ground  about  one  hundred  yards  east  of  the 
first,  and  the  third,  when  it  arrived,  also  camped  on 
the  south  side  of  the  ground,  and  about  one  hundred 
yards  east  of  the  second. 

Officers  designated  by  the  Adjutant  General  TJ.  S. 
A.  to  muster  out  the  Regiment  were:  Captain  Walter 
Howe,  Fourth  Artillery,  Captain  Wisser,  Sixth  Artil 
lery,  and  when  the  books  and  papers  had  been  pre 
pared  to  their  satisfaction,  the  regiment,  on  September 
20th,  left  camp  on  thirty  days'  leave,  with  order  to 
report  back  for  muster  out  on  October  21st. 

The  place  of  muster  out  was  afterwards  changed 
from  Niantic  camp  ground,  to  Hartford  and  New 
Britain.  Companies  A,  B,  C,  F,  G,  H,  K,  L  and  M 
were  mustered  out  at  Hartford  and  Companies  D,  E 
and  I  in  New  Britain. 

On  October  21st  when  the  commands  reported,  it 
was  found  that  a  large  amount  of  the  work  of  prepara 
tion  of  muster-out  rolls  had  to  be  done  over,  and  it 
was  October  31st  before  the  final  muster  out  was  ac 
complished. 

A  large  number  of  the  men  were  sick  at  the  time 
of  muster  out,  many  being  taken  down  after  leaving 
on  furlough.  There  were  over  eighty  at  one  time  sick 
with  typhoid  at  the  Hartford  Hospital  alone,  where, 
however,  the  men  received  most  excellent  care  and 
treatment,  and  the  percentage  of  loss  was  extremely 
small.  A  hospital  was  started  in  New  Britain,  where 
the  best  of  care  and  attendance  was  given  to  men  of 
the  regiment  who  were  sick. 

The  volunteer  regiment  that  on  May  4th,  1898,  had 
left  the  city  with  highest  hopes  and  eager  to  take 
part  in  the  contest  at  the  call  of  the  nation,  had 
served  for  many  months  at  various  posts,  preparing, 
waiting  for  and  expecting  the  opportunity  for  active 
service  at  the  front,  but  through  no  fault  of  the  com 
mand,  had  been  doomed  to  disappointment.  At  a 
later  date,  in  addressing  the  command,  His  Excellency, 
Governor  Lounsbury,  said: 

"A  year  ago  you  enlisted  at  the  call  of 
your  country,  and  to  its  cause,  without  hesi 
tation  and  without  condition,  you  offered 
your  hopes,  your  energies  and  your  lives. 
There  can  be  no  higher  devotion  than  this. 
If  this  regiment  had  fought  on  a  score  of 
battlefields  and  had  mingled  its  blood  with 
every  soil,  it  could  not  have  shown  a  deeper 
consecration,  nor  merited  from  the  state  and 
the  nation  a  profounder  gratitude." 

Although  the  First  Connecticut  Infantry,  U.  S. 
Volunteers,  had  ceased  to  exist  as  an  organization,  its 


nucleus,  the  First  C.  N.  G.,  remained.  The  companies 
were  gradually  reduced  in  strength  from  84  (and  in 
some  instances  over  100),  to  68,  and  so  far  as  the 
officers  and  men  were  concerned,  stood  ready  to  per 
form  the  regular  routine  duties  incident  to  the  service. 
The  state  authorities,  however,  were  unable  to  provide 
either  arms,  uniforms,  or  equipment,  and  when  the 
orders  to  resume  drill  were  issued  in  November,  the 
First  Regiment  was  excused  until  such  time  as  it  could 
be  properly  armed,  uniformed  and  equipped.  Months 
passed  without  this  desired  result,  and  not  until  May, 
1899,  could  the  needed  equipment  be  obtained.  At 
that  date  two  companies  were  without  uniforms  arid 
could  not  get  the  outfit  until  late  in  June. 

The  council  of  officers  of  the  regiment  decided 
to  recognize  in  an  appropriate  manner  the  sacrifice 
made  by  the  soldiers  who  had  died  as  a  result  of  their 
war  service  and  fixed  upon  a  memorial  tablet  to  be 
erected  in  the  armory  as  a  proper  expression  of  their 
feelings. 

The  18th  of  May  was  selected  as  the  day  on  which 
the  tablet  should  be  unveiled,  as  that  would  be  the 
anniversary  of  the  muster  in  of  the  command  into  U. 
S.  Service,  and  arrangements  were  made  to  hold  the 
ceremony  in  the  armory  on  the  evening  of  that  day. 
The  attendance  of  His  Excellency,  Governor  Louns 
bury,  was  assured,  and  he  also  consented  to  receive  the 
war  flags  of  the  regiment  on  behalf  of  the  state  on 
the  same  evening. 

In  view  of  an  express  wish  on  the  part  of  Adjutant- 
General  Van  Keuren  and  other  officers,  a  regimental 
parade  was  ordered,  and  that  of  the  First  fixed  for 
May  18th.  On  that  day  the  Field,  Staff,  Band,  Hos 
pital  Corps  and  Companies  A,  B,  C,  F,  G  and  H 
paraded,  Companies  E  and  I  being  without  arms  or 
equipment.  The  regiment  had  a  membership  of  ninety- 
two  per  cent,  of  the  maximum  and  of  these  sixty-five 
per  cent,  were  veterans  of  the  war.  Eighty-six  per 
cent,  of  the  command  paraded. 

The  regiment  assembled  at  the  armory  early  in 
the  morning,  marched  to  Colt's  Meadows,  and  put  in 
several  hours  of  battalion  and  regimental  drill  with 
Brig.-General  Russell  Frost,  commanding  brigade  as 
Inspector.  Early  in  the  afternoon  the  regiment  re 
turned  to  the  Elm  Street  armory  and  an  eighth  com 
pany  of  veterans  of  the  C.  V.  I.,  was  formed  under 
Captain  M.  Laubscher  (ex-Captain  of  C  Company) 
Lieutenant  Sparks  (Lieutenant  of  II  Company)  and 
Second  Lieutenant  Raymond  G.  Keeney  (ex-Second 
Lieutenant  of  L  Company),  and  this  was  designated 
as  the  color  company.  Sergeants  Neddo  and  Leslie, 
who  had  carried  the  colors  during  the  war,  carried 
the  colors.  After  a  street  parade  the  regiment  at  3  :30 
P.  M.  passed  in  review  before  Governor  Lounsbury 
and  his  staff  at  the  Capitol,  and  in  a  shower  of  rain 
turned  over  the  colors,  which  were  received  by  His 
Excellency  with  a  felicitous  speech.

The  command  then  returned  to  the  armory  and  in 
the  presence  of  the  Governor,  his  staff  and  invited 
guests,  the  memorial  tablet  was  unveiled  with  appro 
priate  ceremonies.  Chaplain  Kelsey  was  assisted  by 
ex-Chaplain  Voorhees  of  the  Third  C.  V.  I. 

The  regiment  received  high  commendation  from 
Governor  Lounsbury  and  from  General  Frost  for  its 
excellent  soldierly  work  and  appearance  during  the 
day. 

GOVERNOR  LOUNSBURY'S  SPEECH. 

"  Colonel  Burdett  and  Soldiers  of  the  First 
Regiment : — -  As  the  representative  of  the 
State  of  Connecticut  I  receive  from  your 
hands  and  into  its  keeping  these  colors.  It  is 
fitting  that  in  a  few  words,  at  least,  I  should 
give  voice  to  that  high  appreciation  and  that 
profound  regard  which  the  people  of  this 
commonwealth  feel  for  this  regiment.  A  year 
ago  you  enlisted  at  the  call  of  your  country, 
and  to  its  cause,  without  hesitation  and  with 
out  condition,  you  offered  your  hopes,  your 
energies  and  your  lives.  There  can  be  no 
higher  devotion  than  this.  If  this  regiment 
had  fought  on  a  score  of  battlefields  and  had 
mingled  its  blood  with  every  soil,  it  could  not 
have  shown  a  deeper  consecration  nor  mer 
ited  from  the  State  and  the  Nation  a  pro- 
founder  gratitude. 

It  is  a  matter  of  history,  I  believe,  that  in 
the  late  war,  of  the  six  New  England  states, 
only  Massachusetts  had  her  troops  at  the 
front.  This  was  so,  not  because  the  Massa 
chusetts  soldier  was  braver  or  stronger  or 
more  reliable  than  his  brother  in-arms  from 
Maine  or  from  Connecticut,  but  because  the 
average  standard  of  the  American  soldiery 
as  compared  with  that  of  Spain  was  so  high 
that  only  a  part  of  those  who  were  called  were 
needed  at  the  front  to  make  victory  reason 
ably  certain.  And  so  from  her  great  num 
bers,  regiments  from  Massachusetts  were  sent 
forward  to  the  fight,  while  those  of  her  sister 
states,  just  as  eager  and  just  as  ready  for  the 


fray,  were  kept  in  camp  to  retrieve  some  un 
looked-for-defeat,  or  to  act  in  some  emer 
gency  of  war,  which,  thank  God,  never  came. 

Your  history  in  the  last  war  was  not  the 
story  of  some  mere  dash  of  bravery.  You 
volunteered  and  so  obeyed  the  first"  call  of 
duty.  Your  hearts  beat  high  in  the  hope  that 
some  commanding  word  would  give  your 
strong  arms  the  right  to  strike  the  blow  that 
avenged  and  set  free,  but  it  was  your  lot  to 
form  a  part  of  that  grand  reserve  which  was 
never  called  into  action,  but  which  none  the 
less  dedicated  the  terms  of  victory.  It  is 
taught  in  all  the  military  schools,  it  is  laid 
down  in  all  the  books  of  the  great  masters 
of  war,  that  obedience  is  the  supreme  test  of 
the  true  soldier,  that  from  the  patient  disci 
pline  of  the  camp  comes  the  enduring  tri 
umph  of  the  campaign.  It  was  yours  to  feel 
the  pulse  of  courage  in  the  heart  of  obedience, 
and  there  is  no  grander  soldiership  than  this. 

For  you  who  in  the  monotony  of  the  camp 
longed  for  the  inspiration  of  the  battle,  who 
in  the  patience  of  obedience  listened  in  vain 
for  some  bugle  to  sound  an  advance,  the  State 
of  Connecticut  feels  an  affection  and  gives 
to  you  an  honor  not  less  than  it  would  have 
felt  and  given  had  you  swept  in  triumph  over 
the  hills  of  San  Juan,  and  had  brought  back 
this  flag  pierced  by  Spanish  bullets  and  torn 
by  Spanish  shell.  You  offered  all  the  ser 
vices  that  could  be  asked;  you  gave  all  the 
service  that  was  permitted,  and  you  gave  high 
service  for  in  the  loftiest  sphere  of  work,  in 
sublime  patience  and  obedience  '  they  also 
serve  who  only  stand  and  wait.' 

The  State  of  Connecticut  receives  these 
colors,  and  through  all  the  years  she  will  keep 
them  as  the  flag  of  her  brave  defenders.  And 
whether  it  shall  float  upon  the  breeze  in 
honor  of  the  living,  or  to  be  folded  away  in 
sacred  memory  of  your  dead,  it  shall  stand 
forever  to  the  State  as  a  token  of  her  faith 
in  the  courage  and  loyalty  of  this  regiment, 
and  of  her  pride  in  its  spotless  record."

REPORT  OF  COLONEL  AUG.  C.  TYLER,  COMMANDING    THIRD    REGIMENT,    CONNECTICUT 

VOLUNTEERS,  INFANTRY. 

HEADQUARTERS  THIRD  REGIMENT,  C.  V.  I. 

CAMP  MARION,  S.  C., 

November  26,  3898. 
Adjutant-General, 

Connecticut  National  Guard, 
Hartford,  Conn. 

Under  the  second  call  of  the  President  of  the  United  States  for  troops,  Connecticut  was  called  on  to  furnish 
one  12-company  regiment,  106  men  and  3  officers  to  the  company.  The  Governor  of  Connecticut  designated  the 
eight  companies  of  the  Third  Connecticut  National  Guard,  together  with  the  Field  and  Staff  of  the  same  regi 
ment,  under  command  of  Colonel  Augustus  C.  Tyler.  The  four  additional  companies  were  Companies  C,  F,  and 
I  of  the  Fourth  Regiment,  Connecticut  National  Guard,  and  one  company  to  be  organized  by  Haldai  A.  Hull 
of  Stonington,  Conn.  This  Regiment,  under  command  of  Colonel  Tyler,  went  into  camp  at  Camp  Haven, 
Niantic,  Conn.,  part  on  June  22d,  and  the  rest  on  June  23d,  with  the  exception  of  that  company  organized  by 
Captain  Hull,  which  reported  a  few  days  later.  Major  Gilbert  L.  Fitch,  Fourth  Regiment,  Connecticut  Na 
tional  Guard,  was  appointed  to  command  the  Third  Battalion,  which  was  composed  of  Companies  C,  F,  and  I  of 
the  Fourth  Regiment,  and  the  company  organized  by  Captain  Hull.  On  June  22d,  Surgeon  Julian  La  Pierre 
and  Assistant  Surgeons  Hiram  B.  Thompson  and  Harry  M.  Lee  were  mustered  into  the  United  States  service. 
On  June  23d,  First  Lieutenant  and  Adjutant,  Roswell  D.  Trimble,  and  First  Lieutenant  and  Quartermaster,  Percy 
H.  Morgan,  were  mustered  into  the  United  States  service. 

The  company  organized  by  Captain  Hull  and  Companies  C,  F,  and  I,  Fourth  Regiment,  were  designated 
respectively  as  Companies  II,  K,  L,  and  M.  On  July  2d,  Alexander  Rodgers,  Captain  Fourth  United  States 
Cavalry,  and  late  Major  and  Inspector-General,  United  States  Volunteers,  joined  the  regiment  as  Lieutenant- 
Colonel.  On  July  2d,  Companies  C,  E,  F,  G,  H,  I,  K,  L,  M,  were  mustered  into  the  United  State's  service.  On 
July  3d,  Companies  B  and  D,  Lieutenant-Colonel  Alexander  Rodgers,  Majors  Henry  J.  Thayer  and  Gilbert  L. 
Fitch,  were  mustered  into  the  service  of  the  United  States.  On  July  6th,  Company  A,  Colonel  Augustus  C. 
Tyler,  and  Chaplain  J.  Spencer  Voorhees  were  mustered  into  the  United  States  service,  completing  the  muster 
of  the  Regiment,  which  was  the  first  to  be  mustered  into  the  service  under  the  second  call. 

************** 

During  the  Regiment's  stay  at  Niantic,  Connecticut,  they  performed  usual  camp  and  garrison  duties.  On 
July  4th,  Company  K  went  to  Stamford,  Connecticut,  to  participate  in  the  celebration  of  the  Declaration  of 
Independence  in  that  town,  returning  the  same  night  to  Camp.  During  the  stay  at  Niantic,  there  was  only  one 
death  —  that  from  lockjaw.  On  September  9th,  the  Regiment  left  Camp  Haven  for  Camp  George  G.  Meade, 
Middletown,  Pennsylvania,  arriving  on  September  10th.  The  aggregate  enlisted  strength,  present  and  absent,  of

CAPTAIN  BARLOW  S.  HONCE 
COMMANDING  BATTERY  A,  IST  REGIMENT.  CONN.  VOL.  ARTILLERY 


FIRST  REGIMENT 
CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  ARTILLERY 


REPORT  OF  CAPTAIN  BARLOW  S.  HONCE,  COMMANDING  BATTERY  A,  LIGHT,  FIRST 
REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEERS,  ARTILLERY. 

HEADQUARTERS  BATTERY  A,  LIGHT, 

FIRST  REGIMENT,   C.  V.  A., 

NEW  HAVEN,  October  25,  1898. 
SIR: 

I  have  the  honor  to  report  the  condition  of  Battery  A  for  the  period  commencing  May  4th  to  the  muster- 
out  of  the  organization,  as  follows: 

In  obedience  to  G.  O.,  No.  8,  A.-G.  O.,  dated  Hartford,  Conn.,  April  30,  1898,  Battery  A,  125  strong,  as 
sembled  at  Niantic  Conn.,  May  4,  1898,  preparatory  to  muster  into  the  service  of  the  United  States. 

By  authority  of  G.  O.,  No.  10,  A.-G.  O.,  Hartford,  Conn.,  May  11,  1898,  a  third  platoon  was  added  to  the 
Battery.  By  the  same  order  leave  of  absence  for  the  commissioned  officers  and  furloughs  to  enlisted  men  during 
their  term  of  service  in  the  Volunteer  Army  of  the  United  States  was  granted. 

The  Battery  was  mustered  in  at  Niantic,  Conn.,  on  May  19,  1898,  for  two  years'  service,  by  authority  of 
the  President's  proclamation  of  April  23,  1898.  The  Battery  was  stationed  at  Niantic,  Conn.,  by  telegraph 
orders  dated  Headquarters,  Department  of  the  East,  and  assigned  to  that  Department,  June  2,  1898. 

The  Battery  was  recruited  and  supplied  with  modern  guns  and  equipments,  and  a  thorough  system  of  drill 
and  discipline  established  in  accordance  with  U.  S.  Army  regulations. 

By  telegraphic  orders  dated  August  4,  1898,  the  Battery  was  detailed  with  General  Wade's  expedition  to 
Porto  Rico,  which  was  abandoned. 

We  remained  in  camp  at  Niantic,  Conn.,  till  September  16,  1898,  when  the  Battery  was  furloughed  for 
thirty  days.  On  expiration  of  furlough,  October  15th,  the  Battery  assembled  at  New  Haven,  Conn.,  and  was 
mustered  out  of  the  U.  S.  service  ten  days  later,  October  25,  1898. 

During  the  period  covered  by  this  report  the  health  and  condition  of  the  men  under  my  command  have  been 
excellent.  We  have  lost  by  disease,  1 ;  by  transfer,  1 ;  discharged  for  disability,  5. 

Five  have  been  discharged  to  accept  commissions  in  the  U.  S.  Army,  and  3  by  order  of  the  Secretary  of  War. 

The  receipt  of  many  favors  from  the  State  authorities,  which  added  much  to  the  comfort  and  convenience 
of  the  Battery,  is  hereby  gratefully  acknowledged. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

BARLOW  S.  HONCE, 

Captain,  Commanding  Battery  A,  Light,  First  Connecticut  Volunteers,  Artillery.

REPORT  OF  CAPTAIN  FRED  J.  BRECKBILL,  COMMANDING  BATTERY  B,  FIRST  REGIMENT, 

C.  V.  ARTILLERY. 

FOKT  GRISWOLD,  CONN., 

September  30,  1898. 
Adjutant-General,  State  of  Connecticut: 
SIR: 

I  have  the  honor  to  report  in  compliance  with  your  request  that  I  give  you  a  brief  history  of  Battery  B 
since  its  entry  into  the  United  States  service,  that  Battery  B,  First  Heavy  Artillery,  Connecticut  Volunteers, 
reported  at  Niantic,  Conn.,  at  5  o'clock  p.  m.,  May  4,  1898,  and  was  mustered  into  the  United  States  service  May 
19th,  with  four  officers  and  one  hundred  and  forty-six  enlisted  men,  after  being  considerably  riddled  by  the  ex 
amining  officer. 

On  May  21st,  two  days  following  our  being  mustered  in,  we  were  ordered  to  Fort  Griswold,  Conn.  At  that 
time  there  was  considerable  excitement  in  that  end  of  the  state,  they  not  knowing  the  exact  location  of  Cervera's 
fleet,  and  the  chances  the  Government  thought  were  very  good  for  his  gaining  an  entrance  to  Long  Island 
Sound.  After  assuming  command  of  Fort  Griswold,  it  being  virtually  an  obsolete  post,  as  no  troops  had  occupied 
it  for  years,  it  took  a  great  deal  of  hard  labor  on  the  part  of  the  men  to  get  it  in  condition  for  immediate  serv 
ice.  The  first  thing  we  thought  of  doing  was  to  get  the  guns  (eight  inch  Rodman,  smooth  bore)  in  condition  for 
service.  When  once  we  had  them  in  condition  where  we  knew  they  would  be  of  use  we  immediately  started  the 
artillery  drill,  and  can  say  that  it  took  us  but  a  short  time  to  master  it. 

On  May  29th  I  was  ordered  to  send  a  detachment  of  one  officer  (Lieut.  John  A.  Leonard)  and  thirty  en 
listed  men  to  Stonington,  Conn.,  to  take  charge  of  gun  located  on  the  breakwater  at  that  point,  at  the  same  time 
sending  a  detachment  about  two  miles  below  Fort  Griswold  to  take  charge  of  mine  station  located  there. 

On  June  1st  we  were  ordered  to  recruit  the  battery  to  a  total  enlisted  strength  of  200,  which  necessitated 
an  additional  54  men. 

On  June  30th  Lieut.  Leonard  and  his  detachment  returned  from  Stonington,  staying  at  this  post  until  July 
7th,  when  he  was  once  more  ordered  to  report  to  Fort  Trumbull,  Conn.,  that  giving  us  the  care  and  control  of 
the  entire  Connecticut  coast. 

The  course  of  instruction  we  have  undergone  since  our  entry  has  been  in  Artillery,  Infantry,  and  signal  work, 
the  majority  of  the  men  becoming  very  efficient  in  each  branch. 

Since  our  entry  in  the  service  we  have  had  no  sickness  to  speak  of,  the  men  standing  the  inclement  weather 
in  Niantic  and  since  leaving  there,  very  well.  There  have  been  no  deaths  in  the  battery  to  date. 

In  closing,  I  wish  to  thank  the  Adjutant-General  and  his  assistants,  Quartermaster-General  and  his  assist 
ants,  and  the  Commissary-General  and  his  assistants  for  the  many  courtesies  received  at  their  hands  while  in 
Niantic. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

FRED   J.   BRECKBILL, 

Captain,  Commanding  Battery  B,  First  Regiment,  Connecticut   Volunteers,  Artillery.

FIRST  REGIMENT,  CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEER  ARTILLERY  175 


REPORT  OF  CAPTAIN  GILES  BISHOP,  JR.,  COMMANDING    BATTERY    C,  FIRST    REGIMENT, 

CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEERS,  ARTILLERY. 

HEADQUARTERS  FIRST  REGIMENT, 

CONNECTICUT  VOL.  ARTILLERY, 

NIANTIC,  September  30,  1898. 
Adjutant-General,  State  of  Connecticut. 

SIR: 

At  the  call  for  volunteers  issued  early  in  the  spring  of  the  present  year,  Connecticut  was  asked  to  furnish 
one  regiment  of  Infantry,  one  Battery  of  Light  Artillery,  and  two  Batteries  of  Heavy  Artillery.  As  there  was 
no  organization  of  Heavy  Artillery  in  the  National  Guard  of  the  State,  it  was  necessary  to  organize  them,  as 
it  were,  from  nothing.  Of  the  two  Batteries  thus  organized,  Battery  "  C  "  was  the  only  "  Simon  Pure  "  volun 
teer  Battery,  or,  for  that  matter,  organization,  that  Connecticut  produced  in  the  late  war.  Francis  G.  Beach  of 
New  Haven,  Connecticut,  who  held  the  rank  of  Lieutenant-Colonel  and  Assistant  Adjutant-General  of  the  State 
troops,  was  given  the  task  of  recruiting  the  Battery.  He  was  ably  assisted  in  the  work  by  Allan  M.  Osborn,  then 
a  Sergeant  in  the  New  Haven  Grays.  The  work  of  recruiting  was  quietly,  but  effectively,  carried  on.  Men 
from  all  over  New  Haven,  Wallingford,  Meriden,  Wins  ted,  and  other  cities  joined  the  ranks,  and  on  May  7, 
1898,  marched  down  the  street  to  the  New  Haven  station,  and  were  transported  to  the  State  Camp,  Niantic, 
Conn.  Battery  C  arrived  in  Camp  Haven  in  excellent  spirits  in  spite  of  the  cool  spring  air  and  cloudy  sky.  The 
first  night  in  camp  was  a  memorable  one,  and  many  of  the  recruits  received  their  first  camp  experience  —  a  severe 
drenching.  For  twenty-five  days  it  rained  with  but  few  intermissions. 

On  May  19th  the  Battery,  with  an  aggregate  of  144  members,  was  mustered  into  the  Volunteer  service  of 
the  United  States  by  Lieutenant  Hamilton  S.  Rowan,  United  States  Artillery. 

The  commissioned  officers  of  the  Battery  were:  Captain  Francis  G.  Beach;  First  Lieutenant  Allan  M.  Os 
born;  Second  Lieutenant  Giles  Bishop,  Jr.,  of  New  London,  and  Second  Lieutenant  Henry  S.  Terrill  of  Winsted. 
Twenty-seven  non-commissioned  officers  had  been  appointed  before  the  muster-in  of  the  Battery,  and  consequently 
were  mustered  with  their  rank. 

From  May  7th  until  September  29th  the  Battery  remained  at  Camp  Haven.  But  few  changes  happened. 
The  daily  drills  were  looked  forward  to  as  a  break  in  the  monotony.  By  the  end  of  camp  the  Battery  had  the 
reputation  throughout  the  State  of  being  the  best-drilled  organization  in  the  State  forces.  The  opportunities 
for  Artillery  practice  were  very  limited,  being  confined  to  the  six  10-inch  mortars  in  the  seacoast  Battery,  and 
the  two  unserviceable  smooth-bores. 

In  the  early  part  of  the  camp  a  beautiful  set  of  colors  was  presented  to  the  Battery  by  the  Quinnipiack 
Club  of  New  Haven.  N.  G.  Osborn,  of  the  New  Haven  Register,  made  the  presentation  speech,  and  Captain 
Beach  received  the  silken  emblem  for  the  Battery. 

The  departure  of  the  First  Regiment  twice  from  camp,  and  its  returns;  the  arrival  of  the  Third  Regiment, 
and  subsequent  departure  for  Camp  Meade,  Penn. ;  the  change  of  station  of  Battery  B  from  Niantic  to  Groton, 
together  with  Decoration  Day,  and  the  reviews  of  the  First  and  Third  Regiments  by  Governor  Lorrin  A.  Cooke, 
were  a  few  other  incidents. 

The  Battery   received   and   escorted   about   every  organization  that  went  into  camp  during  the  year. 

Towards  the  end  of  August  there  was  considerable  sickness  in  camp.  A  form  of  malarial  fever  had  a  short 
run,  und  then  a  number  of  Battery  men  were  taken  to  hospitals  about  the  State  suffering  from  typhoid  fever. 

Finally,  after  the  many  weary  days  of  expectant  waiting,  orders  came  to  muster-out  Battery  C.  The  mus 
tering  officers  arrived,  and  on  September  29th  the  Battery  was  furloughed  for  thirty  days,  at  the  end  of  which 
time  they  were  to  re-assemble  for  the  final  work  of  muster-out. 

During  the  summer  the  membership  of  the  Battery  had  been  increased  so  that  the  number  at  furlough  was 
195  officers  and  men. 

This  is  a  summary  of  the  adventures  of  Battery  C,  First  Connecticut  Artillery,  U.  S.  Volunteers,  up  to 
September  30,  1898.

CONNECTICUT  VOLUNTEERS 

REPORT  OF  LIEUTENANT-COMMANDER  ARTHUR  H.  DAY,  COMMANDING  NAYAL  BATTALION, 
C.  N.  G.,  IN  RELATION  TO  SERVICE  IN  UNITED  STATES  NAVY. 

HEADQUARTERS  NAVAL  BATTALION,  C.  N.  G. 

NEW  HAVEN,  CONN.,  November  8,  1898. 
Adjutant-General,  State  of  Connecticut. 

SIR: 

By  your  order,  dated  June  4,  1898,  at  the  request  of  the  Navy  Department,  the  Battalion  assembled  at  Camp 
Haven,  Niantic,  011  June  6th,  for  the  physical  and  technical  examination  of  such  officers  and  men  as  should  be 
willing  to  volunteer  for  service  in  the  United  States  Navy  for  the  war.  The  First  and  Engineer  Divisions  of 
New  Haven,  with  the  Battalion  line  and  staff,  and  the  Second  Division  of  Hartford,  were  escorted  on  their  de 
parture  by  the  local  military  companies. 

From  the  6th  to  the  15th  of  June,  the  officers  and  men  of  the  Battalion  were  subjected  to  a  rigid  physical  and 
professional  examination  by  a  board  of  officers  appointed  by  the  Navy  Department,  consisting  of  Commander 
Wells  L.  Field,  U.  S.  N.,  Chief  Engineer  Henry  W.  Fitch,  U.  S.  N.  (retired),  and  Passed  Assistant  Surgeon 
John  S.  Sayre,  U.  S.  N.  (retired). 

As  the  result  of  the  examination,  every  officer  of  the  Battalion  was  recommended  by  the  board  for  a  com 
mission  in  the  United  States  Navy,  although,  unfortunately,  the  medical  officers  and  adjutant  failed  to  receive 
commissions  owing  to  the  lack  of  vacancies  in  the  staff  corps.  One  officer,  who  had  already  been  conspicuous 
for  diligent  application  to  professional  study,  was  recommended  for  and  received  a  commission  in  the  Navy  with 
higher  rank  than  he  held  in  the  Naval  Battalion.  I  believe  this  case  to  be  unique  among  the  militia  officers 
commissioned  in  the  Navy.  I  consider  the  gratifying  result  of  this  examination  to  be  in  a  great  measure  due  to 
the  faithful  and  diligent  work  of  the  officers  in  the  study  of  navigation  and  seamanship  on  board  of  the  U.  S. 
Monitor  Wyandotte. 

Although  the  physical  examination  was  very  rigid,  but  few  members  of  the  Battalion  were  rejected,  and  the 
majority  of  these  for  color  blindness.  One  hundred  and  eighty-eight  enlisted  men  who  had  passed  examination 
volunteered  for  service,  and  on  the  15th  day  of  June  were  sworn  into  the  U.  S.  Navy;  this  number  being  within 
fifteen  of  the  total  authorized  strength  of  the  Battalion.  In  view  of  this  fact,  that,  in  this  volunteering,  the  Bat 
talion  and  division  organization  completely  disappeared  and  officers  and  men  became  individual  units  in  the  U.  S. 
Navy,  I  think  we  may  be  proud  of  such  a  record.  By  order  of  Commander  Field,  I  was  detailed  to  take 
charge  of  the  men,  with  Lieutenants  Parker  and  Goodridge  and  Chief  Engineer  Trowbridge,  and  report  with 
them  aboard  the  U.  S.  S.  Minnesota  in  Boston. 

The  enlisted  men  were,  unfortunately,  mustered  in  at  so  late  a  date  that  many  of  them  were  compelled, 
from  the  fact  that  ships  already  had  their  complement  of  men,  to  spend  their  entire  service  in  the  Navy  aboard 
that  vessel,  and  I  wish  to  say  in  this  connection,  that  the  manly  and  uncomplaining  way  in  which  they  per 
formed  their  duties  under  such  trying  circumstances,  has  met  with  most  enthusiastic  praise  from  those  who 
were  acquainted  with  the  facts.  Early  in  September,  the  officers  and  men  began  to  receive  honorable  discharges, 
and,  on  October  25th,  I  had  the  honor  to  report  that  the  officers  and  men  of  the  Battalion  had  returned  and  had 
reported  for  duty.  At  date  of  this  report,  the  paymaster  of  Battalion  is  still  in  the  service  of  the  United 
States. 

Lieutenant  Samuel  F.  Punderson,  Adjutant,  was  accepted  by  the  Navy  Dept.  for  Commission  as  Asst.  Pay 
master,  U.  S.  Navy. 

Seaman  Yandel  Henderson  was  appointed  ensign  in  the  Navy  and  served  throughout  the  war  on  board  the 
U.  S.  S.  Yale.  Quartermaster  Walter  H.  Allen  in  July  was  honorably  discharged,  and  was  appointed  naval 
cadet  and  served  aboard  the  U.  S.  S.  Dolphin  during  the  war.

SUMMARY. 

The  Battalion  furnished  the  following  officers  to  United  States  Navy: 

Four  Lieutenants. 
Four  Lieutenants   (Junior  Grade). 
Five  Ensigns. 

One  Passed  Assistant   Engineer. 
One  Assistant  Engineer. 
One  Assistant  Paymaster. 
One  Naval  Cadet. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your   obedient   servant, 

ARTHUR  H.  DAY, 
Lieutenant-Commander  and  Executive  Officer  Commanding  Naval  Battalion,  C.  N.  G. 

REPORT  OF  LIEUTENANT  JOHN  W.  WEEKS,  UNITED   STATES  NAVY. 

UNITED   STATES  AUXILIAEY  NAVAL   FORCE, 

HEADQUARTERS  SECOND  DISTRICT, 

U.    S.    S.    "MINNESOTA/' 

BOSTON,  Sept.  10,  1898. 
Adjutant-General,  State  of  Connecticut. 

SIR: 

The  15th  day  of  last  June  there  were  received  on  board  this  ship  one  hundred  and  eighty-eight  men  in 
charge  of  four  officers,  all  from  the  Connecticut  Naval  Militia.  Between  the  1st  of  July  and  the  25th  of  August, 
one  hundred  and  three  of  these  men  were  transferred  to  other  ships;  the  remaining  eighty-five  have  been  dis 
charged  from  the  service  from  this  ship. 

It  gives  me  much  pleasure  to  report  the  willingness,  readiness  for  any  duty,  and  excellent  conduct  of  the 
men.  I  believe  there  has  not  been  a  case  of  willful  infraction  of  any  regulation  of  this  ship  or  of  any  unbecom 
ing  conduct  when  ashore. 

Their  service  has  been  particularly  trying,  as  they  entered  the  service  late,  and  after  the  first  two  or  three 
weeks  there  was  little  possibility  of  their  seeing  service  at  the  front,  and  since  the  first  of  August  very  little 
possibility  of  serving  on  any  other  ship  than  this. 

A  recruiting  ship  at  best  is  simply  an  abiding  place  to  keep  men  until  they  are  needed  on  service  ships. 
This  very  fact  would  prevent  men  from  taking  any  special  interest  in  the  Minnesota,  but  their  performance  of 
duty  here  did  not  in  any  way  indicate  that  this  was  not  the  ship  of  all  others  they  preferred  to  serve  on. 

When  the  men  came  aboard,  the  Minnesota  was  tied  up  to  a  wharf.  The  second  day  of  July  fire  destroyed 
the  storage  warehouse  on  this  wharf  and  very  nearly  destroyed  the  ship.  During  the  fire  the  militiamen  on 
board  quickly  showed  their  fighting  qualities  and  what  could  be  expected  of  them  at  the  front.  Twenty  men  were 
overcome  by  smoke  and  heat  so  that  they  had  to  be  removed  to  the  sick  bay  or  hospitals,  and  I  did  not  see  a 
single  case  where  a  man  failed  to  do  his  duty. 

The  25th  of  August  I  received  orders  to  discharge  all  men  belonging  to  the  Connecticut  Naval  Militia, 
but  as  the  ship  would  have  been  left  without  a  crew  sufficient  to  have  cared  for  her,  authority  was  given  to 
retain  fifteen  men.  The  following,  although  entitled  to  their  discharge,  volunteered  for  this  duty,  and  continued 
to  serve  until  they  could  be  discharged  without  injury  to  the  ship  or  to  the  service: 

Chief  Master  at  Arms,  Charles  K.  Hutchinson,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Chief  Yeoman,  Henry  F.  Punderson,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Seaman,  Clifford  M.   Peck,  Milford,  Conn. 

Seaman,  Francis  S.  Hunn,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Seaman,  L.  F.  L.  Pynchon,  Philadelphia,    Pa. 

Seaman,       .  Albert  J.  Kenyon,  Branford,   Conn. 

Seaman,  Fred  E.  Bosworth,  Hartford,  Conn. 

Seaman,  Lorenzo  W.  Kenyon,  Hartford,  Conn. 

Seaman,  Charles  S.  Lee,  Guilford,  Conn. 

Ordinary  Seaman,  Theodore  P.  Judson,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Ordinary  Seaman,  Walter  W.   Lounsbury,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Ordinary  Seaman,  Ernest  R.  Kelsey,  Guilford,  Conn. 

Ordinary  Seaman,  Henry  W.  Drury,  Springfield,  Mass. 

Landsman,  Paul  Franke,  Hartford,  Conn. 

Landsman,  William  R.  Lee,  Guilford,  Conn. 

Fireman,  1st  class,  Dennis  M.  Mahoney,  New  Haven,  Conn. 

Any  state  should  be  proud  of  such  men,  and  do  everything  possible  to  keep  them  in  its  service. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

JOHN  W.   WEEKS, 
Lieutenant,  U.  S.  N.,  Assistant  Chief  Auxiliary  Naval  Force,  Commanding  the  Second  District.

Colonel 

Lucien  F.  Burpee 

Waterbury 

43 

11  July    95 

21  July    98 

On  duty  in  Washington,   16  may  to  12  June,   1898,  under 

direction  of  the  Adjutant  General  of  Connecticut. 

Commissioned    lieutenant    colonel    and    judge    advocate, 

U.  S.  Volunteers,  from  colonel,  2nd  regt.,  Conn,  national 

fuard,  21  July.    Granted  leave  of  absence  from  C.  N.  G., 

6  July  98. 

Ordered  by  Secretary  of  War  to  report  in  person  to  Major 

General  Nelson  A.  Miles,  U.  S.  A.,  for  duty  in  Porto  Rico; 

served  in  Porto  Rico  on  his  staff  and  on  staff  of  Major 

General   James   H.   Wilson,    1st    Div.,    1st   Army   Corps; 

honorably  mentioned  for  distinguished  services,  sept.  25, 

98. 

Assigned  to  duty  on  staff  of  Major  General  James  H  .  Wilson, 

1st  Army  Corps,  U.  S.  A.,  13  oct.,  and  served  in  Kentucky 

and  Georgia,  in  organization  of  Army  of  Occupation  of  Cuba. 

Resigned  and  honorably  discharged  1  Jan.  99. 

The  following  extract  is  quoted  from  the  official  report  of 

Major  General  James  H.  Wilson,   U.  S.  V.,  October,  98: 

*****"It  gives  me  great  pleasure  to  say  that  Lieut.  Col. 

L.  F.  Burpee,  Judge  Advocate,  U.  S.  V.,  was  charged  with 

the  task  of  investigating  the  burning  of  the  village  of  Goto, 

near  Ponce,  and  with  the  trial  of  certain  prisoners  charged 

with  riot  and  arson  in  violation  of  the  laws  of  war.  This  was 

a  very  important  case,  as  it  affected  the  peace  and  quiet  of 

the  island  and  the  future  relations  of  the  people  with  the 

United  States,  and  as  it  was  tried  by  a  military  commission, 

it  required  legal  ability  and  discretion  of  a  high  order.***** 

The  case  was  conducted  with  great  solemnity  and  decorum. 

The  prisoners  were  defended  by  Capt.  Lemly,  U.  S.  A., 

long  resident  in  Caracas,   who  speaks  Spanish   perfectly. 

Every  safeguard  was  thrown  around  the  proceedings,  but 

they  resulted  in  the  conviction  and  sentence  of  three  to 

confinement  at  hard  labor  for  two  years  each  and  two  for 

fifteen  years  each. 

"The  case  reflects  great  credit  on  Col.  Burpee  and  was 

admirably  managed  throughout.   The  leading  officers  of  the 

commission  and    Capt.  Lemly  concurred   in   saying   they 

never  knew  a  case  to  be  presented  with  greater  fairness, 

thoroughness    and    ability,    or    with    more    learning    and 

solicitude  for  the  interests  of  all  concerned.     Col.  Burpee 

is  a  very  competent,  able  man,  who  would  not  have  failed 

to  reach  the  highest  distinction  had  the  war  lasted. 

"Should  it  be  my  lot  to  participate  in  the  preparation  of 

the   people  of   Cuba   for   American   citizenship,    I   should 

regard   myself   as   fortunate   indeed   if   I    could   have   the 

assistance  of  so  learned,  so  judicious  and  so  responsible  an 

officer  as  Col.  Burpee.  —  JAMES  H.  WILSON, 

Commanding    1st    div.,    1st    Army    Corps."
